Pea Soup

By

I received this recipe in a French Canadian cooking class taught by a chef at La Veille Gare in the 90s. It has remained my favorite pea soup.

Preparation

Step 1

Finely chop onion, carrot and celery. Combine all ingredients except peas in a very large pot, bring to a rolling boil and then add the peas.
Boil until the peas are soft and almost all blended in, stirring from time to time to prevent sticking. Green peas take approximately 3/4 hour to cook, yellow peas take longer.
