Roasted garlic, prosciutto and basil deviled eggs. These turned out to be a delightful surprise with a splash of truffle oil. I'd never made anything with truffle oil before and love the subtle flavor it gave them.

Does anyone have a tried and true split pea soup recipe? I have a ham bone and don't know what else to do with it.

 

[RubiDia]

The Jewish one is pretty good. It comes in a tube. It should be like two dollars.

Make dill pickle soup! It's DILLICIOUS!

Are you joshing me?

Nice to see you about.

 

[Emerson40]

Are you joshing me?

Nice to see you about.

I'd never josh you, especially about food.

I usually make it with a smoked ham hock, and the secret is using good quality dill pickles, the kind that are found swimming in murky, garlicky brine, in the refrigerator in the deli section, or a nearby Polish Babcia's crock, soaking in brine in a dark, cool fruit cellar.

Chunks of potato, carrot, smokey ham, grated pickles, onion, and sliced eggs, in a rich, dilly broth.

I could send you the recipe, if you'd like.


And to see you is nice!
You were missed during your wee hiatus.

My Babci - mom's grandma - made pickle soup with pickles she made herself. Polish dills have also returned to store shelves, thank God.

Emerson's Dill Pickle Soup

Ingredients

Homemade Stock
6 cups water
1 smoked, bone-in Ham Hock
1 med onion, quarted
2 carrots, roughly chopped
2 ribs of celery, roughly chopped
2 bay leaves
6 whole pepper corns
a handful of fresh dill and a few sprigs of fresh thyme, bundled together and wrapped in cheesecloth or a coffee filter

Soup
2 Tblsp Butter
2 shallots or one medium onion, finely chopped
2 cups carrots, diced
2 to 3 large Yukon Gold (or equivalent) potatoes, diced
Ham from Ham Hock, chopped
1 Tblsp Horseradish
Homemade Stock (or sub 5-1/2 cups Chicken or Veg Stock)
Four large dill pickles shredded or finely chopped*
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup of water
2 Tblsp of flour
1 to 2 cups (start with one, then add to taste) of pickle juice*
2 cooked, hard-boiled eggs, roughly chopped
Fresh dill, finely chopped
Sour Cream

Method

Stock - can be made a day or two ahead
Place water, ham hock, vegetables, and aromatics in a large stock pot.
Bring to a boil, then turn heat down to low, cover, and simmer for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, skimming as needed.
Remove hock and pull meat from bone - reserve and chop meat to add to soup
Strain stock into a large bowl and cool. Once cooled, skim any fat from surface of stock.

Soup
In large stock pot, melt butter over med low heat. Add shallot and cook until sweated, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add carrots, potatoes, chopped ham, and horseradish to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 to 7 minutes. Add stock and shredded pickles.
In a small, separate bowl, whisk together sour cream, water, and flour. When well blended, add slowly - whisking constantly, to avoid curdling - to the soup mixture. Slowly add, whisking again, the pickle juice. Warm / cook through, until potatoes are tender.

Taste for seasoning - add more pickle juice at this time, to taste, and only add salt of required, as some pickle brines can be quite salty.

Ladle into bowls, sprinkle 1/2 to 1 Tablespoon of chopped cooked egg on top.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkling of chopped dill.

* For the best result, only use deli-style / Kosher / Polish dill pickles, the kind that need to be refrigerated and come with a nice, cloudy, garlicky, brine.

 

[gotsnowgotslush]

Mr. Emerson, if you please- Could you tell us, what kind of buns or bread are served alongside pickle soup ?

 

[Emerson40]

I mostly serve it with a warm, round loaf of sourdough bread, because the wee kidlets like it, especially so when slathered with a pat of butter.

I have also served it with a denser caraway rye bread, lightly toasted to waken the caraway seeds.

 

[warrior queen]

Well, since you said pretty please.

So - I made this soup.

And it was abso-fucking-lutely scrumptious!!!

I would never in a million years have thought to cook with dill pickles, but this soup works. The entire pot was cleaned up by 4 people

Thankyouthankyouthankyou

You're very welcome. It's always a bit of an adventure when you try something new, and I'm happy to hear everyone enjoyed it.

Never underestimate the potential of the pickle!

Daddy would say that to me when he tucked me in at night.
