1 pound Dry Green Split Peas
8 cups Vegetable Stock Or Water (may Need A Little More Depending On Texture Preference)
2 whole Ham Hocks
1 whole Medium Sized Onion, Chopped
1 whole Medium Potato, Diced
2 whole Large Carrots, Diced
2 cloves Garlic, Minced
1 teaspoon Sage
2 whole Bay Leaves
Salt To Taste
Pepper To Taste

1
Rinse peas under cool running water. Check for and remove any debris...if it ain't a pea, you may not want to eat it.
2
Add the peas, vegetable stock, and ham hocks to a large stock pot. Bring to a low boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes.
3
Lower the heat, and add the remaining ingredients. Continue to cook for another 25-40 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and the peas have thickened the soup. As the soup begins to thicken, it will have a tendency to stick to the bottom of the pot, so be sure that the heat is low and stir often. Add a little water or stock to thin the soup, if necessary.
4
Before serving, remove the ham hocks from the soup and allow to cool. Remove meat from bones and chop into small pieces. Stir into soup.
5
Garnish as desired for serving.
6
Note: I highly recommend using vegetable stock for the very best flavor!
