- Hi folks,
I hope you’re having a great day so far! Welcome back to what’s for tea, and I hope I find you all well!
Today I made this easy & delicious split pea & ham soup :) I made mine in the slow cooker but you can easily make this on the stove top instead…it will take about 3-4 hours on the stove top, just make sure your ham is fall apart tender :)
I’ve listed everything I used below…in case you want to give them a go for yourself.
Thanks for stopping by and until I see you next, take care x
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
Preheat your slow cooker to High (cook for 5-6 hours) or low (8-10 hours)
I Used-
Around 1kg Smoked ham hock (ham hough) or ham shank or similar bone in smoked ham joint
300g or 10oz Dried split peas (green on yellow) rinsed
1 Medium onion - finely diced
2 Medium carrots - diced
2 Ribs celery - finely diced
1 Medium potato - peeled & diced
2.5 pints or 6 cups chicken stock (I just used Knorks stock cubes)

My recipe exactly. I boiled the peas for about 5 minutes before removing them to the slow cooker and added only 1/2 tsp of thyme, 1/2 black pepper and a pinch of salt.❤️
I lived on baxters and heinz versions of these soups as a kid growing up in camelon ( next to falkirk)
Fast forward a few decades and being confronted by the possilpatk mafia on new years day a few miles north of San Francisco......no pressure 😱
This was absolutely stellar, even better than the childhood memories of this soup. We can’t thank you enough for taking the time to post this recipie. If anyone in even remotely considering trying this recipie, please go for it, this is absolutely delicious!!!!!!
Now, on to the lornre sausage and scottish pies...........🙃
We are the same way about soup on a hot day. We are in central Texas in 103-ish weather right now but we get in the mood for soup ANY TIME OF THE YEAR. We keep our home at 69 degrees so it's always on the cool side INSIDE OUR HOUSE!!😂😂😂 Thanks for this great video. I am trying all the Scottish recipes that I can and having fun with it. Of course I don't think I will ever get to taste Haggis but I would sure love to. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful recipes with us!!
We eat soup all year round in our family and it gets pretty hot here in Eastern Tennessee. Pea soup and Potato soup are particular favorites. I look forward to more soup recipes in the future. 🙂💜🙂
Thank you for the wonderful recipe and the scenic and historical clips as well!
Hi from Melbourne Australia, I have just put the lid on my slow cooker as I’m making your recipe. We are in the heart of winter and weather is 3C-13C atm which is very cold for us. I sealed all my veggies first in a drop of oil so each veggie tastes like it should, eg carrots taste like carrots etc. I did add a parsnip as I had one to use up. Thank you so much for your recipe and also all your posts which I always enjoy.
Perhaps try a Gazpacho soup to match your summer weather.
Split Pea and Smoked Turkey is a delicious option 😋
Great anther slow cooker recipe, soup !!! I'm not bothered if it's a hot day !! it will be fine for me when it's raining ! 🤤👍
This is a gorgeous soup Calum :) Dead easy and *packed* with flavour....freezes really well too! Thanks for stopping by
Mine is now cooking :)
we cant wait to dig in. Thanks
I like soup all year round as well. This is a lovely recipe, real comfort food.
Very delicious meal 😋 thank you for sharing 😋 hv a wonderful day 👍💐🤤😃🧡
Thank you for the delicious recipe! This is one of my top favorite soups, Your ham hock looks much more delicious than I find in the States. I am definitely going to make this soon, hot or not! 💖
Yummy, I so love the food and your accent. A wee bit 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I love it when you say that.
Aw thanks very much :) much appreciated! Thanks for stopping by for a *wee* while x
My all-time favorite soup growing up. Love this and will be making it tomorrow after emptying the slow cooker of the pork roast I did. With the cooler months the house gets to smell soooo good due to the variety of soups/stews along with the occasional baked goodies. Looking forward to your Iced Gingerbread (another favorite), and hope to make the Apple Crumble soon, too. The seasonal spices are so inviting. Anyway Cheryl, Have yourself a Wonderful week. *LK*
I'm with you, I love soup. Very nice old photos at the end.
Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful recipe 😊❤️
made this yesterday with low sodium chicken bone broth from aldis about 65mg of sodium. afer 5 hours I pulled the meat out and used the emersion blender in the soup. I added a pinch of salt and cayenne pepper. I used the meat as a topping in the soup bowl. it was delish. thank you for this great recipe!
Totally agree with you about Soup. I love it all year round - Not the tinned rubbish though :)
Hi Mike :) It's such a tasty soup! I've nothing against tinned soup but the only tinned soup I use is cream of tomato...if I need to add it to a recipe :) Thanks for stopping by...much appreciated.
I'm making this right now on top of the stove. Can't wait to eat!😁
Wow, this is sooo French Canadian and also a very French soup!
I feel the same. I live in Florida but I could eat soup anytime. I will definitely try this. Thank you!
Please do Emily! :) let me know how it goes if you decide to give it a go x
Broccoli and Stilton is my fave soup but this is my 2nd best fave. Thanks for the vid Cheryl!
Amazing! Thank you. I spent some time in Ardrossan and Saltcoats in ma youth. Lovely accent took me straight back there. Pea and Ham soup for lunch tomorrow!
Hello, I’m a brand new subscriber to your channel. Keef from “Keef cooks” recommended your channel so I came over to see, my goodness am I glad I did. 😁 I LOVE split pea & ham soup, and yours looks just amazing, thank you for sharing this. I can’t wait for the next episode.

Hi John :) Yes I noticed Keith had mentioned me! I was really chuffed...so welcome! Glad you found our wee corner of UA-cam, pull up a chair and stay a while :)
What's For Tea? Thank You, I will. 😊
I'll have to give this one a try now that I really love peas. It looks delicious. Thanks for sharing your recipe and have a Blessed day.
Oh my goodness, I wish I had a bowl of that right now. Looks scrumptious. I love your ending clips.
That's such a tasty soup Catherine :) FULL of flavour! Thanks for stopping by
That looks absolutely brill, me too. Soup summer or winter. Definitely going to make this. Cheers..
Delicious! I haven't had this soup in a long time .. I could eat a bowl of it right now :-D Thumbs up as always! xx
I decided to make a split pea with ham soup, and I came across your video and recipe. I too am near the water---in my case the Pacific Ocean at San Diego, California. Your recipe looks delicious. But I have to tell you I have never seen the word "hough" before! Perhaps it is what we call a "hock." I am using a large ham bone from my Christmas ham. Thank you for your video, and Scotland is beautiful!
I need about 20 bowls of this 😂😍 I was salivating watching this x
Hi Cheryll I always make soup in all weathers. Pea and ham is my favourite as well, but I make on the hob super tasty. Enjoy yourself in Askrigg take care xx
Thanks Sandra :) Same...I'm an all year round soup girl! x
Lovely recipe....thank you xx
I just love pea and ham soup😇THANK’s❤️
It's delicious isn't it Margaret :) One of faves and one of the easiest too!
Cheryl that looks beautiful, I will most definitely be making this and so easy in the slow cooker
It's one of our faves Linda :) More of a winner thing really...but I eat soup whatever the weather lol :D x
I'll definitely be making this, just like you I could eat soup every single day of the year 😍😋. Thanks for sharing with us your recipe.
Lovely recipe, I love pea n ham soup. My mum used to use smoked ham ribs but they're not that easy to get. I couldn't eat the ribs after but my mum and son loved them. Thanks for the recipe x
Yummy - a recipe for the winter for me though! Lol
Looks delish, will be trying this out 😋
I'm so glad I found this video. My grandma made this one time a long time ago and I'm not a fan of peas but this is different, it surprised me that it was really, really good. I sure do miss her. P.S. It's a toasty 32C today and really windy,lol.
Oh i can just taste that soup now. It looks delicious, have the exact same slow cooker. In its box , but will be dusting it off for this one ... 👍
I love this recipe and I plan to make it, soon as I can get the meat. Not sure if I can find it here in New York. But, i'll try. And by the way, I know you made this video in summer on a hot day. But right now, here in NY, it is -11C. This soup will be so yummy and cozy with some homemade bread. Thanks for sharing your lovely food.
Ah you're very welcome Peggi :) I love NY...last time I was there, it was February and absolutely FREEZING!! I had to buy gloves and a scarf lol :D are you in NYC or upstate? Thanks for watching.
@@WhatsForTea I was born and raised in Brooklyn, in NYC. Now I live in upstate NY in the Catskill Mountains.
It is bitter cold right now. I'm really going to make that soup in my slow cooker. I hardly use it but you've sparked my interest to get the pot out and use it; for this dish and a bunch of your other recipes. I think you're fab!!
nice job !
Oh yeah, The Memories. 🙏
That was intrigueing, I had assumed the Ham was just another ingredient in the mix.
Glad to see you are dressed against the weather in the Leathers.
Hi James :) that's a fab soup and *FULL* of flavour! That photo lol...that was me just before going out on the motorbike :) x
Looks very good, sometimes I do a 'cheats' version of pea & ham soup, if I haven't got split peas I use 2 cans of Batchelors Mushy Pea's instead, and boiled ham ripped into shreds in place of the ham hock or shank, when the shops are shut it's not a bad substitute!
Oh, I made your scotch broth and that's great too, the wife loved it.
Like you I love soup, in fact my friends call me 'the soup dragon'!
As a side note I used to love Heinz Tomato soup, but I don't know if it's me or what but it tastes so BLAND now, if I'm going to have a tin of soup, I prefer those condensed ones (used to be Campbell's but might be Batchelor's now) that way I can substitute stock instead of the water.
Regards
Chris
My all-time favourite soup looks divine when I make this and serve it into the bowl I always add some mint sauce into it and it is delicious Thank you, Cheryl, for another amazing recipe :-)
This is one of our faves Joe :) FULL of flavour! More of a winter soup I guess....but I could eat soup whatever the weather :D
I will try this Thankyou
Just discovered your channel....i'm hooked ☘
Aw fab Anto :) *Welcome* Glad you stumbled across our wee corner of UA-cam x
Bet his maw loves your cookingx
Hi Jason :) Like me, she likes simple things like soups and mince & tatties. She's 85 now and doesn't cook and bake like she used too...so if I make something she likes, I always send some round. She's always welcome for tea, and comes round often. We love having her here...she's quite the character :D
Cheryl my favourite green pea soup, I also yellow split soup hope you make a video xx
I'm not a fan of peas, but my grandmother used to make this very soup, and it was always delicious. Peas from a can make me ill if I even smell them! (Canned cream corn, too, but fresh off the cob homemade fried corn is lovely.)
Oh Becky :) That's such a shame! It is a delicious soup though....and so very easy to make. Lovely to see you x
Hi Cheryl, here in Canada we have a pea soup like yours that is made in Quebec. We call it French Canadian Pea soup in Ontario. Yes, Mr Whats for Tea, we eat this soup in the heat of summer too. Your channel is wonderful Cheryl. Won’t be long until 100K eh?
love your vlogs
27 degrees? I'll take this any day over 40 degrees! The ham hough (hock in my country) looks delicious - sure to make dried peas and beans taste fantastic. Thanks for the recipe!
You're very welcome :) 40 degrees!! Oh my goodness...I'd be in a bathtub filled with ice and cold water :D
It looks beautiful THANKS ♥️
Super tasty Philip :) One of our faves...full of flavour, and really easy too!
New subscriber. Loving this channel. Doing this today. Don’t have split peas. Can I use frozen garden peas instead?
I like to add a bit of cream or plain Greek yogurt along with a dash of cayenne pepper.
My sear and cook stock pot doesn't bubble like this on high. Might explain why veg takes some doing to soften.
However, I've already slow cooked a small unsmoked gammon on high for 5 hours and a burst in the airfryer to brown.
I've added more stock with a low salt chicken stock and a ham stock along with the suggested ingredients.
I'll add my ham to it in another few hours and see how the soup comes out.
Thx for the recipe.
Just made your soup. Absolutely yummy!! Just one negative....... Too salty. Wondered if I steeped ham overnight in cold water first? Maybe less stock cube also. I put two cubes in. I will certainly try this again! So quick and easy. 😃
I love your accent !!
Will definitely be giving this a go! Will be using bacon bones when i make mone though 😁
One of the perils of getting older is I forget things lol. I left 2 things out of the recipe I gave you. 1. The chicken breasts are boneless and skinless. 2. I don't know if you can get or have anything that resembles Fiesta style Hidden Valley Ranch dry packets. This seasoning makes it a little spicy and flavorful. I'm sorry I forgot. Thank you for the soup recipe. I make the same ones a lot and this gives me another choice.
Thanks Cheryl :) I'll be sure to update that recipe. Thanks for taking the time to let me know and for stopping by. Always lovely to see you x
Do you have a cabbage soup recipe?
Pea whack as we say in Liverpool. Delicious.
I can easily get ham hocks (as we spell it) in my local groceries. I have all the ingredients for this except for the hock and celery. I will be using yellow peas because I have several pounds of them. I will be serving this with crust cornbread.
Aw fab :) Let me know how it goes if you decide to give it a go! I'd love to try authentic American cornbread....and have always wanted to try a *real* corndog! :)
Cornbread and chili make for a happy couple. Wonderful on a chilly, windy day, plus the house smells great for hours. Nothing like slow cooker chili, stew, pulled pork, poultry.
Hi Sheryl did you soak your spilt peas first or just put them in thanks
Before using the split peas do I have to soak them or can I just put the dried peas in cooker ?
As you said pea and ham soup is great 365 days of the year ,📆 it's better than a big jersey on a cold and ❄💧☔🌀wet day🍜🍜😋👌👍.
Where did you get your ham hock from?
This is very similar to the way I cook it, except I don't like ham in mine. If you blenderize (is that a word?) pea soup, it can be served cold with a dollop sour cream in it. Maybe Mr. Whats-For-Tea would like it that way in the summer?
* blend :)
Oh that's a fab idea! :) I never thought of doing that...I'll certainly keep that in mind. Thanks for stopping by
Can u use ham stock cube
Is it not fattey with the skin on, i always cut mine off after soaking all night xx
Interesting that you put potatoes in it, I've never seen it that way 🙂
Aaww....... R.I.P. Mr What’s for Teas Mother 💔
Who is this lady talking great recipe followed this many times
a good cook and gorgeous anaw.wit merr cood ye want?mmmmmmmmmmmmm anno! some voddy.
In new England USA we call this pea soup.
