The enduring warmth of a New France classic
In short: Discover how to prepare a traditional Habitant Québécois Yellow Pea Soup. Using basic components, this nutritious meal reproduces a dish originating with France's first New France colonists.
The recipe relies on a foundation of whole or split yellow peas paired with a leftover ham bone or cured ham hock. The process begins by creating a flavorful stock from the ham bone, carrots, celery, onion, bay leaves, and peppercorns.
After straining the solids, the meat is diced and sautéed with vegetables in lard. The soup is completed by simmering the peas in the prepared stock until tender, then finishing the dish with a touch of vinegar and the ham pieces.
