Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cup split peas

  1. Rinse the peas under running water and soak overnight in cold water for 8-12 hours.
  2. Rinse the peas again, transfer to a pot, and cover with water by about an inch. Cook for 1.5-2 hours until fully soft, topping up water as it boils away.
  3. Remove from the heat, drain any remaining water, add salt and butter, and blend until smooth. Serve hot.
