Curried Split Pea Soup

Preparation

1. Step 1

   In a Dutch oven, stir together all the ingredients except the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the peas are tender (no stirring needed).

   Step 2

   Whisk in the salt. Whisk vigorously (but carefully, so you don’t burn yourself) to slightly mash the peas, thickening the soup to the desired consistency.
