PRESSURE CANNING: Split Pea Soup Recipe (Cooking From Scratch)
Channel: Pantry Living
Date: 2024-03-07

Today on our Canadian Homestead, we are making Split Pea soup. This Pressure Canning Recipe is from one of my favorite cookbooks the Ball Blue Book - Guide to Preserving. In the video, I made 4 times the recipe in order to have 7 Quart Jars for the canner and leftovers for supper. Here is the Recipe

Split Pea Soup
Yields 5 Pints or 2 Quarts

1 (16 oz) package of dried split peas
2 Quarts water
1 1/2 cups sliced carrots
1 cup chopped onions
1 cup diced cooked ham
1/4 tsp allspice
salt and pepper to taste

Combine dried peas and water (or broth as I used in the video), bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer covered for 1 hour or until peas soften (i usually only do 30 - 40 minutes) then add remaining ingredients and simmer for another 30 minutes.

Ladle hot soup into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles, clean the jar, and then finger-tighten the lid. Place in a warm pressure canner and process at 10 lbs pressure for 1 hour and 15 minutes for pints and 1 hour and 30 minutes for quarts. Be sure to follow your pressure canner's instructions.
