We had a black south easter blowing — lots of rain, from the south, which showed up at least three leaks that were not there with the prevailing rain from the north we’ve been having all winter. Soup weather.
Normally I would make snert, but I needed a quick recipe, and it also needed to be vegetarian.
Google turned up http://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/vegetarian-split-pea-soup-recipe.html
I added a turnip, and (vegetarian) bacon bits. And of course Worcester sauce.
The “add salt” hint works well. I put in at least four times the salt I normally would. Wow.
