Many thanks to my Mommy, Rosemary Martin, for this recipe!!
1 lb. dried green split peas
8 cups chicken broth/ water
4 stalks celery
4 carrots, chopped
1-2 shallots, chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 bay leaf
Sort and wash peas, place in a large saucepan.
Add chicken broth and water. (I usually don't have enough chicken broth on hand to use only broth, which is why I just supplement with water.)
Add remaining ingredients.
Bring mixture to a boil, reduce head and simmer for 2 hours, stirring often. Remove and discard bay leaf.
