The bones are smoked and the butcher cut them across. It would be fun if you made YOUR Mum's soup and posted it...maybe when it is colder.<BR/><BR/>Next sister down, Yeah the texture constrast with the croutons is part of the charm. Bet your soup was wonderful!<BR/><BR/>Peabody, Restaurants really don't usually take the time to simmer it down to proper thickness...but we can :)Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733838869805925920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-89192650467883406432009-01-08T08:17:00.000-08:002009-01-08T08:17:00.000-08:00It appears that your mom and mine make about the e...It appears that your mom and mine make about the exact same soup. I love it.

I cheated and used some pieces of leftover ham instead of a hambone, so it wasn't as flavorful as it could have been, but still good. And I completely forgot about the croutons! What was I thinking? The crunch of the croutons against the thick, soft soup is part of the joy of split pea soup!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-27755248210343469022009-01-04T17:25:00.000-08:002009-01-04T17:25:00.000-08:00There must be something about Mum's and pea soup. ...There must be something about Mum's and pea soup. My Mum's soup is brilliant. She makes it with bacon bones, which adds a lovely smoky flavour. I have never tried it for breakfast though. Maybe next winter I will give it a go.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05715945613246233125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-46999032336125342702009-01-04T12:08:00.000-08:002009-01-04T12:08:00.000-08:00This is the soup I WISH my mom used to make!
