Sun Oven Arlecchino Split Pea Soup Recipes

SUNCHOKE AND SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, saute the pancetta until just starting to brown. Remove from the pot, and drain on a paper towel lined plate. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the leeks, sunchokes, pasilla pepper, onion and carrots. Let cook for 5 to 6 minutes, then add in the garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Make a well in the middle of the veggies, add the olive oil, and cook for 1 minute, then add the ham hocks. Cook the ham hocks, turning every 2 minutes, until all sides are warm and starting to lightly brown. Add the chicken stock and the peas. Bring to a simmer and cook for 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in freshly cracked pepper, to taste, and remove the ham hocks from the pot to a cutting board. Let them cool for a few minutes and with a fork, shred the meat and add to the soup. Stir in the heavy cream and the vinegar. Ladle the soup into serving bowls and serve with the goat cheese croutons. Sprinkle with rendered pancetta and a crack of black pepper and serve.
• Combine all the ingredients, except the panko, in a small bowl.
• Form into a log shape and wrap in plastic wrap. Freeze for 30 minutes or until firm. While in freezer, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Remove the cheese from the freezer and slice into 1/4-inch rounds. Flatten each slice with your palm or hand, and press into the panko crumbs. Arrange on a silicone baking mat or parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes, then turn over and continue to bake for 6 to 8 minutes more. Cool and store in airtight container in the refrigerator.

SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• To prepare the soup: Pour the peas into a stockpot and carefully check them for any foreign objects. (I know it sounds weird, but occasionally small stones will slip through during processing.)
• Peel the carrots and onion and dice them into about 1/2-inch pieces. Place the carrots, onion, bay leaves, and water into the stockpot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Decrease the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the peas have broken down. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes and place them on a baking sheet. Combine the butter and garlic powder in a small bowl and pour over the bread cubes. Toss the bread cubes until they are evenly coated and bake them for 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
• Ladle the soup into bowls and top with the croutons.
• It's time to pull out that math you learned in third grade:
• 2 cups = 1 pint
• 2 pints = 1 quart
• 4 quarts = 1 gallon
• If you remember this, then you won't panic when a recipe calls for 2 quarts of water and you only have a 1-cup measure. You will know:
• 2 quarts = 4 pints = 8 cups
