Ingredients
1/2 pound dried whole peas
1/2 pound dried green split peas
1 meaty ham bone
3 quarts water
1 large onion, chopped
1 medium carrot, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1/2 cup chopped celery leaves
1 teaspoon bouquet garni (mixed herbs)
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 pound smoked sausage, chopped, optional
Instructions
Cover peas with water and soak overnight. Drain, rinse and place in a Dutch oven.
Add ham bone, water and remaining soup ingredients except sausage and dumplings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 2 to 2-1/2 hours.
Remove ham bone and skim fat. Remove meat from bone; dice. Add ham and, if desired, sausage to pan.
For dumplings, place flour in a small bowl. Make a depression in the center of the flour; add egg and water and stir until smooth.
Place a colander with 3/16-in.-diameter holes over simmering soup; transfer dough to the colander and press through with a wooden spoon. Cook, uncovered, 10-15 minutes. Discard bay leaf.
Freeze Option:: Prepare soup without dumplings and freeze in serving-size portions to enjoy for months to come.
