The Dutch version of split pea soup: Snert! Use the slow cooker for convenience; however, you’ll need to stick around to stir and add water as needed.
Ingredients
- 1 (14 ounce) bag dried split peas
- 1 ham hock
- 3 slices bacon, chopped
- 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
- 3 ½ cups water, plus more as needed
- 4 small potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 1 leek, diced
- ½ large onion, diced
- 2 stalks celery with leaves, stalks diced and leaves chopped
- 1 clove garlic, diced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 (1 pound) package smoked sausage, sliced
Directions
Step 1
Place dried split peas, ham hock, and bacon into slow cooker; pour in chicken broth and 3 1/2 cups water.
Step 2
Cover cooker and cook on High until peas are tender and broken apart, 3 to 4 hours. Stir in more water as needed to prevent soup from burning on the bottom. Stir occasionally throughout cooking.

Stir potatoes, carrots, leek, onion, celery, and garlic into soup; mix in more water, if needed. Cover and cook soup on High for 2 more hours.
