Title: Erbsensuppe No.2 (Pea Soup with Celeriac)
Categories: German Soup Vegetable Grain
Yield: 1 Recipe
| 500 | g | Peas |
| 500 | g | Bacon (or ham) |
| 1 1/2 | l | Water for the ham |
| 1 | Celeriac | |
| 12 | Potatoes or 1/4 more | |
| 1 | Onion | |
| 1 | Laurel leaf | |
| 4 | Allspices |
Boil the potatoes in salted walter, drain and put aside.
Put the cubed ham (or bacon) into a pot with cold water. Heat the water, add the pealed and cubed celeriac, skinned and chopped onion and the laurel leaf and allspices. Boil until the meat is tender.
Boil the peas in a separate pot with water. Drain after 30 minutes of boiling. Add only as much of the bacon broth (or ham broth) that the peas are just covered. Now boil the peas in the broth until they are cooked and remove the pea-skins that swim on the surface during boiling.
When the peas are cooked, cube the boiled potatoes and add them. Add some more broth (just as much as you like for a thin soup or for a thick soup). Bring to a boil again, remove from heat and serve.
