Fill a stock pot with 6-8 cups water depending if you like a thicker or thinner soup. Rinse split peas and sort out odd pieces. Add full ham hocks or shanks, peas, onion, and seasonings to the water. Bring to a low boil and then let simmer for about an hour. The potatoes will add thickness and texture. If you would like a thick soup add the potatoes right away. If you would like a thinner soup and small pieces left in the soup add after an hour. Soup is done when peas are no longer formed and potatoes are soft. This should serve 6-8 people.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user MRSCPLUS9.
