EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Crumbling the needle-like rosemary leaves will release their pungent flavor and make them less prominent in the dish. Save your fingers by chopping or crushing the leaves on a cutting board or with a mortar and pestle.

Dried green split peas can be used for the yellow.

Very tasty! This was a recommendation from a friend, and I tried it and loved it! Sometimes I will add shredded cheddar cheese to the top of the soup, or garlic croutons. It's a perfect wintertime dish!

I was very excited to make the soup and very upset with the results. After blending the soup in the blender it came out very watery and not thick at all. Next time I will not blend any of it.

Made this yesterday and it was delicious. Used chicken broth and water (half and half). Used smoked ham instead of the bacon. Couldn't find the yellow peas so used the green. Will make again, it was so easy to make.
