SPLIT PEA SOUP 2 c. dry split peas water 2 tsp. salt 2 tsp. whole cumin or more 1/4 tsp. cayenne 1/4 c. soy sauce 2 small onions, chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced Optional: sliced carrot sliced celery cubed potatoes cubed ham Wash split peas. Put in soup pot and add 6 to 10 cups water. Less water makes a thicker, creamier soup. You can add more water later. Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil and simmer on low for 1 1/2 to 5 hours. We like it best when the split peas dissolve.
