Pea Soup with Pork

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Swedish Pork
Soups/stews

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 lb (2 c) dried yellow Swedish
-peas -ÿÿdomestic
-yellow split peas
5 c Cold water
2 md Onions — finely chopped
1 md Onion — whole, peeled and
-studded with 2 cloves
1 lb Lean salt pork — in 1 piece
1 t Majoram leaf -ÿÿ
1/4 ts Marjoam powder
1/2 ts Thyme
Salt

Wash the dried peas in cold running water and place
them in a 2-3 quart saucepan. Cover with 5 cups cold
water and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil briskly
for 2 or 3 minutes then turn off the heat and let the
peas soak in the water for an hour. Skim off any pea
husks that may have risen to the surface, add the
finely chopped onion, the whole onion, salt pork,
marjoram and thyme and again bring to a boil.
Immediately lower heat and simmer with pot partially
covered for about 1 1/4 hours or until peas are quite
tender but have not fallen apart. Remove the whole
onion and the salt pork from the soup and cut the pork
in slices about 1/4″ thick. This may be served in
either of two variations. Place a few slices of pork
in individual serving bowls. Season the hot soup with
salt to taste and ladle it over the pork. Or, if you
prefer, serve the soup alone, accompanied by a
separate place of the sliced salt pok and spicy brown
mustard. NOTE: If domestic yellow split peas are used,
they need not be soaked for an hour. Wash them
carefully, cover them with 4 cups cold water and
proceed with the recipe as above. They will take
somewhat less time to cook than the Swedish peas.
