Split Pea Soup
1 pint split peas.
1 1/2 quarts of boiling water.
1 quart of soup stock.
1 small teaspoonful of salt.
3 shakes of pepper.
Wash the peas in cold water and throw away those which float, as they are
bad.
Soak them overnight, and in the morning pour away the water on them and
cover them with a quart of the boiling water in the rule, and cook an hour
and a half.
Put in the rest of the water and the stock, and press the whole through a
sieve, and, after washing and wiping the kettle, put the soup back to heat,
adding the salt and pepper.
