Love this! I've made this several times and I always start by simmering all dried peas for about 2 minutes in boiling water. Then I add all peas at the same time with potatoes and carrots. Also, I add about a cup of chopped celery to add flavor. Delicious and so healthy!

very tasty! followed other reviews and found it probably needs about 10 cups of chicken stock. definitely put the entire bag of split peas in at once, otherwise the second half is WAY too crunchy. needs about 1.5 hrs of cooking time. watch the salt! start with half of what she recommends, as even low-sodium chicken stock can be quite salty. also, as ina said, stir often because the bottom is likely to burn if left unattended.

Great, easy, and tasty. I agree however that unless you like some of the peas "al dente'" you may want to just cook them all at the same time for 60 minutes or so. This and a crusty baguette are all you need for a great fall meal...

After all the great reviews, I really expected something outstanding but, for me, I was really let down. I followed the directions to the "T" and added some smoked ham that I made myself. After the second 40 minute simmer session, the 2nd batch of peas that I added were kind of crunchy. I let it simmer for about another 15 minutes and they still weren't soft. Al dente would be fine but... they were more than that.

Since I had to simmer them for a longer period, the chicken stock evaporated to the point where the soup was more like porridge.

Tomorrow I'll add water and blend the leftovers (sans ham. It'll probably come out fine :

Very filling, good tasting soup. Results in a thick soup as a leftover and can be thined for reheating with good results

I've never cared for split pea soup, but this one is wonderful! It did turn out thicker than expected, so I added more chicken soup. I served it with cubed pieces of ham which made the soup a tiny bit too salty, so I suggest reducing the amount of kosher salt if you're going to use ham. Have yet to make an Ina recipe that isn't fabulous. She's the best!
