Ingredients

Split Pea Soup

  • 3 tablespoons Tuscanini Olive Oil

  • 2 to 3 marrow bones

  • 1 and 1/2 to 2 pounds boneless flanken, cut into pieces

  • 2 medium onions, diced

  • 1 leek, washed and sliced

  • 2 ribs celery, diced

  • 2 parsnips, diced

Directions

1.

Heat olive oil in a six-to-eight-quart pot over medium heat. Add bones and flanken; allow to brown. Transfer to a platter; set aside.

2.

To the pot, add onions, leek, celery, parsnips, and carrots. Cook until onions begin to soften, about five minutes.

3.

Return beef and bones to the pot; add split peas, salt, pepper, and eight cups water.

4.

Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer. Cook for one and a half hours, up to three hours for super-tender meat, adding more water if soup becomes too thick.

5.

For puréed soup, remove the marrow bones and meat from the pot. Discard bones; shred the meat. Using an immersion blender, process soup until smooth; add shredded meat.

6.

To store, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to five days. Soup will freeze well for up to three months.

Notes:

The soup thickens as it cools and in the fridge afterward. Reheat the desired amount in a pot over low heat while stirring. The soup should slowly return to the original consistency. If not, add hot water to adjust consistency to your liking — and don’t forget to adjust seasoning as needed.
