Yes well this here recipe is a 5 star in my mind. I added potatoes and bacon because I had to use it up but even without them it was delicious. Thank you. Its a repeat in my home. ??

This soup has good flavor - depending mostly on the quality and taste of your hambone, but I would have to agree with those reviewers who complain of how thin this soup is. It is significantly thinner than any other split pea soup Ive ever made. I would suggest holding back 2-3 cups of the water that they suggest using and I would guess you wont decide to add it in later.

A minus 5. worst recipe ever. watery, no flavour. I have made dozens of good pea soups. This one goes in the garbage. even 2 qts might be too much. no saving this.

Very watery. Its been cooking for a few hours now and it hasnt thickened yet. I only added 2 qts of water instead of the 2.5qts. I was hoping for a thick pea soup.

This is the first split pea soup Ive ever made. It is yummy and easy to make. I am no cook and even forgot to add peas as the ham bone was cooking, lol. But I added the peas when I added the carrots and celery and let it cook til peas were done. So, so cook.:)

This is a simple, wonderfully tasting Pea Soup. Last Winter, I gave away 3 ham bones because all of the recipes I had were so complicated and over done. Use this, cook often and enjoy!

This soup was really good!! It wasn't thick like other split pea soup recipes but the taste was really good!! I bought an extra piece of ham to add to the soup and I used 1/2 tsp. of salt instead of 1 tsp. of salt because our house uses reduced sodium recipes. I also soaked the peas for 1 hour like the recipe says but I did not add the peas to the soup until the bone was removed from the soup because I saw the other reviews about the peas being mushy. I will definitely be making this again, thanks!!!!!

Perfect consistancy and taste!

Nice Recipe

Easy to make, perfect for a cold winter day.

1 package (16 ounces) dried green split peas
1 meaty ham bone
