Pressure Canning Split Pea Soup with Ham

Ahhh..split pea soup with ham...perfect for a winter meal. Having jars of this soup on your pantry shelf makes for quick heat and eat meals that are both delicious and nutritious. Leftover holiday ham is the perfect ingredient to flavor this USDA-approved recipe.

Recipe makes 7-8 quarts of soup.
6 cup dried split peas (3 lbs)
24 cups water or stock
3 cups chopped onion
4-1/2 cups sliced carrots
3 cups diced cooked ham
3 bay leaves
3/4 tsp. allspice
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine dried peas and water in a large kettle and bring to a boil. Gently simmer for 60 minutes until peas are soft. If a smooth soup is desired, use a blender to process the soup in batches. Add remaining ingredients and gently simmer for 30 minutes. Remove bay leaves and ladle into hot jars. Remove bubbles and wipe rims clean. Place lids and rings on jars as usual and process pints for 75 minutes or quarts for 90 minutes at the pressure level appropriate for your elevation according to USDA tables.
