This was great! The glaze from the ham gave it a slightly sweet taste, which made it even more complex and delicious. I used an immersion blender a little bit to give it a thicker texture.....delicious!!!!

Woo! I have been a pea soup hater since childhood -- but no more! This soup is divine! I cooked according to the recipe, but added about 1 tsp of herb de provence and a pinch of thyme. I also used some leftover shredded carrots and chopped them up - perfection.

I am completely in love with this soup. It tastes hearty, yet light - and honestly doesn't seem like a pea soup. You can chef this up and be the belle of the soup ball!

This was very good. I also added a tablespoon of liquid smoke and it turned out fantastic! Also added just a few black beans for color and used an immersion blender. Delicious and nice green treat for the holidays!

My Dad never wrote a single recipe down.Then,here is Dave L.'s recipe and the Memories evoke a tear~full reminder of every bowl He ever served up.Lovingly rolling every bean in his fingers and rinsing to be "sweated" in water over~night.The fresh Ham Hock{s}were placed gently into the "pot liquor" to not ruin the Beans,turning them to mush.A redolent vapor waffted throughout the House.Additions of whatever suits that Moment.End result? The Best.

This was disappointing. Split pea soup just tastes plain good, however you make it. It warms the soul. But the smoked ham hocks, as smokey as the smelled in the package, did not distribute that smokiness to the rest of the soup. The ham hocks are very salty themselves, but do not make the soup salty. There is plenty of meat on the ham hocks for the soup but not sure you want to eat it. I have made better split pea soup from leftover holiday ham.

Extremely easy to make and probably the best pea soup I have made. Doesnt last long in the house. Although great the same day it does taste better the next day - especially with the Ham Hock left in overnight before being pulled apart for the meat.

I made this exactly as written (with chicken broth, and it was fantastic. I am a split pea lover and this has been one of the best. Very easy receipe and would recommend topped with coutons.
