Artsoppa Yellow Split Pea Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 1 carrot, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups dry yellow split peas, soaked overnight
  • 5-6 cups veggie broth
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced

Method

Add the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic to a soup pot and sauté over medium-high until tender, adding a bit of water or veggie broth along the way to keep from sticking.

Add the soaked split peas, veggie broth, and bay leaves and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 90 minutes, or until the split peas are tender.

Next, add the caraway seeds, thyme, black pepper, and mustard and simmer for another 15 minutes. Then add the lemon juice, stir, and serve!
