*I updated this recipe on 12/6/2020. Enjoy! I.
I added a bouquet garni to this soup. A bouquet garni is a few herbs wrapped in cheesecloth or a musin bag to keep the herbs separated from the soup. You can also use a nut milk bag. This allows you to infuse the soup with all those good flavors and scents without the leftover plant material (stems, leaves). For this soup I used fresh parsley, fresh thyme, and a bay leaf.You can make this soup in a large saucepan on a stove top as well. In step 4, bring the soup to a gentle boil, cover and simmer for 1 hour and 30 minutes.Some folks like to add a ham bone to the soup for salt and flavor. Totally up to you. If you do add a ham bone, take out at least 1 teaspoon of the salt in this recipe.No need to soak the peas overnight if you're not following SCD.
