This soup gets all its goodness from aromatic vegetables, no ham bone needed!
Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped
3 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1/4 head cabbage, chopped (1/2 lb)
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
3 quarts vegetable broth
2 1/2 cups dried split peas (green or yellow)
2 teaspoons kosher salt (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
Directions:
1. In a large Dutch oven, combine onion, carrots, celery, cabbage, garlic, oregano, and vegetable broth; bring to a boil, over high heat, loosely cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and let cook until tender, about 45 minutes.
2. Stir in split peas and bring back to a simmer; loosely cover, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the peas are softened and starting to break down, about 1 1/2 hours.
3. Add water if soup gets too thick during the cooking.
4. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce; let simmer a few minutes to meld flavors, taste, and adjust seasoning and thin with water as needed.
