Title: Swedish Style Pea Soup
Categories: Crockpot Soup
Yield: 6 Servings
| 1 | c | Yellow split peas |
| 1 | | Meaty ham hock |
| 2 | qt | Water |
| 1/2 | ts | Dry mustard |
| 4 | | Carrots; diced |
| 1 | | Onion; diced |

Soak the peas overnight and drain. Place in the crockpot along with the ham
hock, water, mustard, carrots and onion. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 to 12
hours. When the peas are tender, mash lightly with a spoon. Add salt and
pepper and if desired the sherry. Heat about 30 minutes more. Sometimes I
cook this overnight and just heat up when it's time to eat.
