SPLIT PEA SOUP
This customizable recipe for classic split pea soup allows you to make it vegetarian or not with equally delicious results. Meat eaters can get that classic smoky flavor by adding bacon or ham hock, while vegetarians can reach for the smoked paprika. Half the split peas are added part way through cooking, which adds texture to each cozy, hearty spoonful.

Steps:
- If using bacon: In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, 12 to 13 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with a paper towel. Once cool, crumble and set aside for garnish. If using ham hock: In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil, then brown the ham hock until golden, about 6 minutes. If making the soup vegetarian: In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the olive oil.
- Add the onion, leeks and garlic and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. (If the vegetables seem dry, add a little olive oil.) Stir in the carrots, paprika (if using), half the split peas, thyme and 8 cups stock or water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, partly covered, stirring occasionally, for about 45 minutes until peas are tender.
- Mash the soup coarsely with a potato masher or give it a few quick blitzes with an immersion blender (watch out for the thyme sprigs). If you'd prefer a smoother soup, blitz until nearly smooth. Add the remaining 1/2 pound split peas and simmer about 1 hour, or until the peas are soft. If at any point the soup looks too thick, add more stock or water; if it looks too thin, remove the lid during the second simmer until it thickens. If using ham hocks, remove any meat from the bone, cut it into small cubes and stir into the soup. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with crumbled bacon, if using, and lemon wedges.

HEARTY SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH BACON
This is a thick, mellow split pea soup with a whisper of meaty smoke and the brambly fragrance of thyme. The recipe is easy and copious, and the soup freezes well. Look for split peas that have a use-by date on the package and are relatively fresh; they will cook faster and better.

Steps:
- Dice bacon into 1/4-inch cubes. Place in a heavy 6-quart pot over medium-low heat. Cook until fat is rendered and translucent. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic. Cook until onion and garlic are soft and translucent. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add split peas, stir to coat with fat, and add bay leaves and 2 quarts stock. Increase heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat so soup simmers. Skim foam that rises to the surface for about 10 minutes, until no more appears. Add thyme leaves. Simmer uncovered about 1 hour or longer, until peas are soft and starting to fall apart. Add more stock, as needed.
- Remove soup from heat. Add salt and pepper to taste. Purée soup in a food processor in several batches, short of perfect smoothness; you should be able to spoon up some texture. Reheat soup, skimming off any foam. Stir from the bottom to mix well, then ladle into bowls and serve.

Steps:
- Make the soup: If you have not yet, soak your split peas in water for 2 hours or overnight. This will improve the cook time of your soup. If the peas are not soaked, you will just need to cook them longer, about 30 to 40 extra minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced bacon and cook until crispy and brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon and rest it on a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off all but 1/4 cup of the drippings from the pot.
- Place the pot back over medium heat and add the onions, garlic and marjoram leaves. Cook until they turn translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Add the split peas, stock and milk and simmer until the peas start to fall apart, about 20 minutes.
- Once cooked, transfer half of the peas and cooking liquid to a blender with half of the spinach. Puree until smooth, adding more liquid if needed to thin out the soup. Repeat this step for the remaining half of the peas and cooking liquid.
- Combine all of the soup together and season with salt and lemon juice. Serve garnished with the bacon bits, sour cream and some fresh marjoram.
- Make the grilled cheese: Using the flat side of a knife or the back of a spoon or fork, crush the cloves of garlic and place into a small microwave-safe bowl. Add the butter and microwave on high for about 30 seconds or until the butter is boiling hot and fully melted.
- Brush the garlic butter over the back of the top and bottom pieces of bread for each sandwich. Flip the bread over and spread mayonnaise on each side and place 2 pieces of sharp white cheddar cheese in the middle of half of the pieces of bread.
- In a saute pan or skillet over medium heat, toast the sandwich butter side down until an even brown color is achieved, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip the sandwich and repeat on the other side.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, cut in half and serve hot with soup.

SPLIT PEA,HAM AND BACON SOUP
This soup is great any time of year. I wanted to try and make it lower in fat and cholesterol,and I believe I have done it with this recipe. There are two ways to make this recipe. I have done both and prefer to add the extra 4 cups of water.

GREEN SPLIT PEA AND BACON SOUP
From Super Food Ideas July 2008. Though I have listed chicken stock as per recipe I used a homemade ham stock. This bought back memories of New Years Eve parties that my parents used to have and there was always pots of mushy peas served. UPDATE- after making this several times now I have found the cooking time will vary between 25 to 45 minutes - I can only put it down to the split peas and that they may vary from packet to packet.
