    I read the other reviews (after I had started and quickly realized that that was just too much cumin! I don't want to go into the details on how I salvaged it, but for the future, I will definitely cut down on the cumin.

    Otherwise, it is a good recipe (that takes far longer than stated....

    I soaked the peas while getting the veggies and bacon ready and it still took 1:15 to get the peas done. I just cut my bacon up and cooked it, rendering as much fat out of it as I could then cooked the veggies in just a bit of it (to make it more "Heart Healthy then added it all back for flavor by the end!! I threw the bacon in with the peas to cook the flavor in. It was delicious! I used a sprig of fresh thyme instead of cumin and it was lovely! Pureed up nicely (bacon and all for special needs. Just perfect.

    Super easy and super delish! The peas did take longer then the minutes shown, but worth it.

    This was a good recipe except for the fact that it took 5 times longer to cook than the recipe said. It says 20 min cooktime after you add the peas. Mine took over 2 hours to get the peas tender. My husband liked it but wasnt thrilled to have dinner 1 1/2 late.

    This was a very good soup; the bacon, esp. was a great way to top it off! Also, I used a little extra chicken broth because it was extremely thick.

    I have been making this soup for over a year now and it remains in my top 2 soups of all time.
    I follow the recipe exactly as it is, because it's just perfect. I highly recommend using Nature's Promise uncured bacon. It has a lot less fat and its delicious. Best split pea recipe!

    Delicious and super simple!! Will make again! Also, I didn't have cumin, so I used just a dash of thyme and didn't have slab bacon, so I just used regular sliced, low sodium bacon, baked in the over at 400, and poured the fat into my pot and then crunched up the bacon when it was finished. Super simple and VERY flavorful.

    Muy delicioso Sunny! I used sliced salt pork since I was short on chicken broth, doubled the veggies and added a diced potato to the soup. Comfort in a bowl!!!
