Ingredients

    2 cups (450 g) green split peas
    6 to 7 cups (1410 to 1645 ml) water or vegetable stock
    1 medium-size yellow onion, diced
    2 creamy yellow potatoes (such as Yukon gold or fingerlings), diced
    2 or 3 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
    2 carrots, diced
    2 celery stalks, diced
    1 teaspoon dried marjoram
    1 teaspoon dried basil
    1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
    1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke, optional
    Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Rinse split peas, checking for any impurities, such as stones or residue.

Place all ingredients except salt and pepper in a soup pot, and bring to a simmer.

Cover loosely and cook until peas are tender, 1 hour or longer. Check occasionally to make sure water has not completely evaporated. Heat should be low-medium.

The resulting soup should be thick and creamy, with the split peas quite broken down and mushy. Add salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot.
