How to Make Andersen's Split Pea Soup Copycat
- In a large pot, combine 1 pound dried split peas, 1 cup chopped onion, 2 carrots (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), 8 cups of water or chicken broth, 2 ham hocks, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1 bay leaf, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 60-70 minutes, or until the peas are tender and easily mashed.
- Carefully remove the ham hocks from the pot and set aside to cool slightly.
- Once the ham hocks are cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones and shred it. Set aside.
- Carefully pour the soup through a fine-mesh sieve or strainer, discarding the solids.
- Return the strained soup to the pot and stir in the shredded ham. Reheat gently for 5-10 minutes.
- Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Serve hot and enjoy! Makes approximately 8 servings.
