Product recommendation
Normal Cooking: Soak the split peas for 12 hours in cold water. Rinse and put in a large pan. Cover with the water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 25 minutes. Skim off any scum and add the vegetables. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the peas are tender. Cool slightly, then mash with a potato masher until thickened. Garnish with the fried bacon.
