That door pull would be perfect for a men’s restroom. I’m not exactly sure what to use for the ladies’ door pull…….
Split Pea Soup I never knew how good SPS could be until this recipe. (Not andouille but spiral ham) I buy (store brand) spiral sliced hams at Easter (and our Thanksgiving) because they are usually $1- 1.50US per pound (only the week before Easter and TG). Stupid cheap. I have no idea how they can sell for that cheap. I pull off all the nicely sliced ham parts and bag up for sandwich making. I then take the remainder and trim off all the lean ham I can easily do and chop it up. The bone with the rest of the ham will cook off in the soup. ………. Split Pea Soup #30 Dutch oven needed 1 pound split peas, soaked overnight 1-1.5 pounds ham, diced Ham bone 6 medium potatoes peeled and diced 1 large onion diced 3 Qt chicken stock Olive oil/red pepper 4 cloves garlic crushed 3 bay leaves 1 teaspoon grain of paradise* 1/2 teaspoon black pepper Some Chalula hot sauce …………………………. Char Ham in olive oil with a little garlic Remove ham Add more olive oil and red pepper, onions and then in a bit, the garlic. Once onions are clear add peas, potatoes, chicken stock, hambone, black pepper and Grains of Paradise Once cooked for 1.5-2 hours, ladle out 1.5 qts, purée and return. Add bay leaves and charred ham. Cook/Simmer for a while. Taste and add hot sauce. No salt needed. *Grains of Paradise is the secret ingredient in a lot of my recipes. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
That works for me, before it became a popular soup in the 80s/90s it was a classic working-class meal with bread and jam.
We use pretty much the same recipe except we put in three or four cans of brown beans instead of peas. Really good.
There was some BBC program late one night trying to prove Canadians weren’t all nice - they couldn’t!
Found my andouille in Auckland! Lentil soup tonight, yum….. https://www.lauthentique.co.nz/about-us Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
We have already informed the National anti-sausage authorities of your ways. The Aust/NZ way dob in a Yank.
Looks delicious! Sadly I’m back in the great frozen north now. It is also impossible to bring any meat products back into Canada.
