could not be simpler to make. Throw everything in and let the machine do the rest!
Ingredients
Instructions
- Turn on slow cooker to high and pour in olive oil. Add shallot, garlic, carrot and fennel. Stir to coat.
- Use a mortal and pestle or a small spice grinder to crack the fennel and cumin seeds. Not looking for a powder, just enough to break the hull of the seeds. Add to slow cooker.
- Rinse split peas and add to slow cooker along with the veggie broth.
- Season with chili flakes, salt and pepper. Bring soup to a bubble, then reduce heat to low and cook for 4-5 hours until vegetables are soft and tender.
- Enjoy soup as is or pulse with an immersion blender before serving. Garnish the soup with sprouts, chili sauce or your favourite hot sauce.


What size jar does this fit in?
Hi! Thanks for the message too. I think we answered the question in message, but for anyone else reading, it is a 1 quart jar. I’ve also added that to the text above the recipe for future readers.
A) I could be wrong, but I think those ingredients will fit into a 1 cup jar…a quart-size jar only if you only want it a quarter size full, and maybe you add the water to it, instead of dumping into a bowl to make the soup, as instructed.
B) The bouillon mix instructs to reserve 2 tsp for the soup mix, but the soup mix doesn’t address adding it.
C) Sounds like this makes a good soup!
Hi Andi! Thanks for commenting. Let me see if I can address these one by one:
A) I do believe quart size was an error. All of our dry mixes were intended to fit into a 1 pint mason jar. I’ve fixed that reference and the “half pint” reference in the recipe instructions. We had a bit of a mix up in which size is which when we issued these and I thought I had fixed them all but I guess not! Sorry about that.
B) It looks to me like the instruction under “SOUP MIX” says to add 2 teaspoons of the bouillon. It says, “Combine cheese powder, buttermilk powder, 2 teaspoons bouillon, cornstarch….”
C) Thank you!
Ryan
I am looking for a dry soup recipe to put in mason jars for long term storage. Using my dehydrated broccoli. Thank you.
Has anyone actually made this soup? How does it taste? Is it creamy or soupy?
