plant-based purée split pea soup directions
- In a large stockpot on medium/low heat, sauté the onions, dried oregano, ground clove, celery, carrots, garlic, and salt + pepper with avocado oil until the onion is translucent around 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add the broth, potatoes, and peas. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 20 minutes, occasionally stirring, skimming any foam that may surface.
- Strain the soup through a sieve, reserving both the solids and liquid.
- In a food processor, pulse together the solids: peas, potatoes, celery, and carrots into a thick, hardy purée. Repeating this step until all solids have pureed. It’s okay to have some whole peas and potato chunks remaining.
- Add purée mix back to pot with the broth liquids and stir well.
- Lastly, If the soup is too thick for your preference, add more vegetable broth to thin out to desired consistency.

Making Ahead + Storing
This soup recipe can be made a day in advance and stored tightly covered, in a toxic free container in the refrigerator for two days after. Due to pea soup naturally thickening you may need to thin the texture with a little vegetable stock when you reheat it. The soup also freezes well for 2-3 months.
