[@peternufc81]

[@BillyDee159]

Best SP recipe I’ve found....used some chicken broth with water and some garlic....cooked for about 3 hours.....delicious

[@brethazlett5354]

Great soup! Thanks Bruce!

[@yolandafonseca5900]

Looks yum! Thanks.

[@rosaspanjol673]

Looks delicious 😋!.. thanks for sharing!

[@cynthiagalura6365]

Thats looks yummy

[@JamesGoeke]

This is about the 10th recipe I've viewed on KZbin because I'm about to make split pea with our leftover Xmas hambone and I found it to be the most helpful and civilized, by far. All thoughtfully, curated natural ingredients and the parmesan crisps at the end were the icing on the cake (or the garnish on the soup, if you will). Thank you!

[@BruceBeckintheKitchen]

James, I'm delighted that you found the Split Pea Soup post, ham bone at the ready. It is always a treat to hear that I have actually provided value for viewers. So thank YOU for your comment. And I hope you will take a look at brucebeckinthekitchen.com, which has forty-some posts and growing. It has a wide variety of personal faves in all categories. Would love to hear your comments. Thanks again, and have wonderful food experiences in the new year! Bruce

[@redson425]

I agree, I've watched a whole bunch of this recipes on You Tube also and this is certainly the best.

[@hacksaw4966]

I have a hankering for split pea soup, and this looks like the best recipe I can find tonight. I'm going to have to head over to the El Rancho Mexican market to check out the pea selections there. Don't have a ham bone but would surely use it if I did. Thanks for sharing. I'm subscribing ASAP!

[@tattoofthesun]

This was great!!

[@stevestudley4060]

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed your content. So well done.

[@staroliva6502]

[@MSEAD123]

You know what you are doing Bruce!!

[@tgrossman9029]

At what do you set the oven for the parmigiana crisps and about how long? Thank you

[@loridennis2989]

Looks pretty darn good! Gonna try that recipe!

[@jamesbond9873]

Great video chopping the vegetables was soothing.

[@BruceBeckintheKitchen]

Hi Ron, Glad you enjoyed the video. Please check out more at brucebeckinthekitchen.com . Thanks for your comment! Bruce

[@susiemarshall2656]

Is it better with chicken stock?although yours looks fab, I am going to try it your way, thanks for sharing

[@asmrlilybee249]

Excellent👍 Just made this from my New Years Day spiral ham. My house smells amazing! Beautiful touch with cheese crisps...May have to do that for Caesar salad. Thank you🤗 ✌💜

[@BruceBeckintheKitchen]

Thanks, Lily! Let me know how the Caesar goes! Bruce

[@hynanolan9907]

[@BruceBeckintheKitchen]

Thank you, Hyna, Please keep watching! Bruce

[@Reddylion]

Yummy...

[@dianecarol2748]

Looks amazing ! Making tonight

[@robertdigregorio7927]

Well done Bruce. Hey, I was just thumbing through “The Official Fulton Fish Market Cookbook”. That’s you, right?

[@docmalthus]

I'm jealous that you have easy access to whole peas. Your friend is right...half whole and half split is the way to go!

[@TheAxeman33]

~ This looks fabulous. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe with us .. :-)

[@flatearthcrypto6991]

good soup

[@scotty193]

Holy smoke Bruce are you Scottish............you killed this soup

[@yesyoga]

Holy smoke! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕

[@ronaldyeater3322]

Hi, great recipe, learned some things, I like the shank more than the pretty butt, think more flavor? Holiday hams always use butt, and winter spices and use for bean and potato soups, throughout year I make shank ham and use bone for pea soup, can I use a holiday ham(cloves,brown sugar, pineapple, cherries...)bone For pea soup? Or wash off? Tyvm

[@brega6286]

I just got enough ingredients from the food bank to actually make split pea/bean soup with the "holiday ham" (joke..it was a small pressed ham roll) but you know any ham will do to make a hearty meal of this delicIous nutritious soup. In the past I made vegetarian variation using little pink cubes of fakin ham and some extra smoke flavoring.

[@danomatlocker2194]

You won the split pea recipe 👍🏼

[@BruceBeckintheKitchen]

Thanks, Dano, Great to hear from you! Bruce

[@patricecooper8419]

I have enjoyed your great presentation, and I think that you are a very nice person! However, those parmesan crisps, did that come from the parmesan cheese? Where did that come? And you soak and cook the split peas first? Could you explain it clearly for me?

[@Pbro1000]

MMMM mmmm mmmm good, Thank you.

[@bevh4408]

Smoked turkey leg just as good if not better.

Whole dried peas wont break down as split peas do., they'll remain whole so keep that in mind, I'd rather use split peas.

[@BruceBeckintheKitchen]

Hi, Edwin, Whole peas do break down, actually. It just takes longer cooking time. Split peas in any ratio of green to yellow can always yield a lovely soup. I suggested the whole peas because I learned this soup from a Swedish friend who always cooked it this way. And maybe I prefer the texture. But whether I have a precious holiday hambone in the freezer or I'm just looking for some cold-weather comfort, I jump in and use what I have on hand, as i'm sure you do, too. Thanks so much for leaving a comment. Bruce

[@RedRisotto]

Very well explained. Liked! However, what I do differently. No salt when boiling the ham - can always be added later. Once the ham is tender and removed... I run the broth through a siv and discard the veggies (they no longer have any flavour anyway). Refrigerate the broth to make it easier to skim fat. Add chicken stock and top off with skimmed broth and a little bit off the water that the peas soaked in. Add soaked peas and simmer until done. Smash some with ladle. Add diced ham and freshly chopped carrots and simmer until carrots are a perfect consistency. Taste off with salt and pepper. Refrigerate. Next day. Slowly heat up to eating temp (add a bit of chicken broth if too thick.). IMHO more flavour without the "dead/flavourless" veggies in there acting as a filler.

[@RedRisotto]

Sorry, "ham tender..." I normally use smoked picnic shoulder.

[@larryhubert8101]

Do not like the taste of yellow peas I only make Green split pea soup and use smoked ham hocks and vegetables

[@ProfoundWizdum]

There absolutely no benefit in soaking the peas, unless you're in a real hurry. Save a pot and just throw them in the soup.

[@maximedwards3456]

No butchers where YOU live then?, no- massed produced instead.

[@moriah1394]

1.49 a pound for tortured meat…sad. Eating meat is fine and no conscious about it not so appetizing

[@brega6286]

Use smoke flavoring for extra flavor when making it vegetarian.

[@mrgcav]

Thus is not real Pea soup, historically speaking. Nor would I eat this mans food. He supposed to be a professional chef and wares no gloves and measures water by sticking his bare finger in the mix.

[@carolorth3884]

Don’t be so critical when you can’t even spell

[@P3rmissionD3ni3d]

I’ve made pea soup several times but mine is super basic. Gonna try this recipe out modified. I dislike peas but I like pea soup!
