"My favorite. My mother gave me this recipe in 1998 when I left home. I missed the home cooked soup that she made all growing up and asked her for the recipe. She made it and wrote it down for me.

"This is the soup I make after I have baked my Celebration Spiced Baked Ham With Orange and Marmalade Glaze. This soup uses split peas, but you can just as easily use yellow or red split lentils instead (same weight and cooking instructions). Many old style recipes require that the split peas are soaked overnight before starting recipes but this is not normally necessary nowadays. However, be sure..."

"A dear friend of mine gave me this recipe. Her mother made this for their family while she was growing up. Amazing soup with a surprisingly meaty texture and beautiful color. Wow! Even cooler? The variations she suggested. I've tried the Baghdadi variation - and I can't imagine the other ones being anything less than marvelous. This is..."

"I'm currently making this for my dinner tomorrow. The trick is to cook it slowly. You can chuck all sorts in. It is best served with nice bread. I cheat and buy mine from the local health food shop--homemade organic yumsky bread. I found my broth mix in asda organics for about 50p, but you can use any dried broth mix (I think mine contains..."
