It's quite a common dish in Germany. The Dutch are the masters though.
its pea soup not pee soup you stupid ass
Can you read
yes, can you lick your elbow
It's quite common in Poland too. Maybe not a every week type of dish but still.
I'm a burger and I grew up eating split pea soup pretty regularly, it's still one of my favorite soups. Really hearty, has a strong comfort food quality
My mummy made split pea soup all the time. Comfy and hearty like said.
T.amerilardissimo
Yeah, used to be much more popular in the states. I ate a ton when I was a kid.... and I'm old. I have a chunk of left over ham in the freezer and it is getting cold. Time for some split pea soup! Thanks for reminding me OP.
We have the same pancake thing on Thursdays in Finland. Comes from a time when the Swedish crown wanted people to eat more peas and peas were thought to be Thor's favorite food so they ate it on Thursdays
Did not know that was the reason, interesting
Is* don't know why my phone wanted it to be "I'd"
Yeah pea and mint soup is a British classic.
I don’t know why op has chickpeas in his image(not peas).
Blame the chefs onbord my boat
Yellow peas are not chickpeas, Mr Buttertooth
>Chickpeas
Get your glasses, fren.
That's weird. I'd only pee soup IN Sweden.
dry peas are yellow
No. Some peas are yellow and other peas are green. Didn't you do punnet squares in year three?
One institution that keeps the Thursday pea soup going is the Finnish military. They actually know how to make a really good pea soup. I remember looking forward to the soup on Thursdays, because it was genuinely good and usually you could have as much as you needed, which was not the case with other foods.
The pancake was not really anything special.
pancakes are always garbage but pea soup varies from edible to god tier
needs mustard
>Swedish cooking
Zero finesse. This is why people hear about french cooking and not Swedish cooking
Sound like you have never have had a good pea soup and you know there is a 2 michelin star restaurant called aquavit in New York that is based of swedish cuisine
>new york
>michelin
>swedish
yeah that's 3 strikes
I wouldn't bring up New York of all places when trying to make a point about quality.
I feel like it's steadily declined in popularity ever since The Exorcist made people associate it with demon vomit, truly a shame because it genuinely is very delicious
Oh yeah, I used to eat cottage cheese all the time too, wonder what happened to that. It used to be in every restaurant that served breakfast
I'd bet thousand island got phased out because it's basically just russian dressing
Mexican restaurants all still have chips and they're usually cheap shitty ones, but it's more about the salsa than the chips. A good handmade salsa can save even the shittiest tortilla chip
On that note you can still buy canned split pea soup at least, and it's not particularly difficult to make it yourself. Kind of a shame it's not really in restaurants anymore but it certainly hasn't disappeared off the face of the earth
There's a "fancy" restaurant I go to sometimes that fries their own kettle chips but they don't do anything to flavor or season them, just plain fucking potato fried in oil and they don't even salt them, they're unbelievably bland. Other than that though yeah potato chips aren't really a thing anymore
Exactly here in Finland also, every thursday.
It's huge in the Baltic states, in particular Latvia from what I gather. They use the more traditional grey peas for it.
Pea soup is good
BASED BASED BASED
Only real chads and sex-havers know of Pea Soup Andersen's.
Absolutely a thing in Hungary. Either as a normal soup often with carrots and sausage/smoked meat (pic rel), a creamy version or as a very thick stew called főzelék that’s often served with meat on the side.
Cream soup
Forgot pic rel. We used to get this a lot in the school cafetetia and I loved it. It’s great with some roasted onions
And the thicc stew. You can go crazy with toppings, here it’s served with sour cabbage&onions and roasted sausage
Hungarian food always looks great, I'd love to visit someday.
Feel free, it’s still somewhat cheap even with all the inflation. Nowadays it’s alsp worth leaving Budapest as there are some very serious restaurants scattered around the countryside
peas in water? yeah that's a thing outside sweden you fucking swedish retard.
very popular in Canada, especially on the Quebec-side. often cooked with cured & smoked ham, and served with a pretty generous amount of salt & black-pepper (sometimes even a bit of tabasco/hot sauce)
>I'd pea soup popular outside of Sweden?
My Irish mother talks fond memories about split pea soup, especially the day after.
I literally can't remember the last time she actually made it. I never learned how to make it from her.
That’s a nice looking soup OPea.
Not very common anymore in the US, if I’m buying it I like it with bacon but if I’m making it then just a salted pea purée from high quality peas is very tasty.
damn. i gotta find a ham shank and stew up a pot of peas real soon.
>I'd peas soup
lol.
Yeah it's common in Newfoundland too. Great hearty bellyfill'r
>We eat it every Thursday with pancakes afterwards.
No you don't. Now eat your falafel, Sven.
My dad used to make it quite often, as well as a cream based ham soup with tons of fennel. Unfortunately it does seem to have fallen off the radar and not just in restaurants and on the kitchen table. Knorr used to make a pea soup mix that was mad decent as both a staple and a survival ration but they don't anymore and it pains me greatly since generally speaking their erbswurst was the best but they almost certainly didn't discontinue it for no reason.
They have it in Quebec. I buy some every time I cross the border
not enough butter on that flatbread, anon.
Looks reasonable to me, butter (most likely a mix of butter and margarine) is expensive
I make pea soup 3 times a week, is pretty gud and cheap, also mostly fire and forget at least until peas turn into mush after an hour of boiling
Holy shit the amount of rancid farts after thursday in the military. Was almost unbearable. Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarts all over the place, that shit can not be good for you even if its eatable.
washing peas before cooking and skimming the foam really helps to reduce farts
