Split Pea Soup Recipe

Soak a cup of peas over night and boil in three cups of water. Cook

until peas are soft, then mash them quite smoothly. Then dilute with

stock. This stock may be made from bones and cold meat or fresh meat.

Fry an onion and add to the soup, and when ready to serve add minced

mint leaves and little squares of toast, fried very crisp.
