Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Split Pea Soup. I ordered it with Molson Canadian and the rich and indulgent elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. wild blueberry in particular became more prominent in a good way. maple syrup production is a seasonal …

Home cooking attempt — Split Pea Soup from scratch

I spent an afternoon making Split Pea Soup from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting peameal bacon right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks.

Split Pea Soup for a dinner party — went down extremely well

I made Split Pea Soup for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe.

The comforting and familiar character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with wild blueberry or from scaling up production at the expense of quality. poutine emerged from…

Ingredient appreciation — what makes Split Pea Soup special

What sets Split Pea Soup apart is the handling of wild blueberry. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the fresh and clean result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience. poutine emerged from Quebec rural diners in the 19…

A dish that tells its story — Split Pea Soup reviewed

You can taste history in Split Pea Soup if you know what to look for. maple syrup production is a seasonal Quebec ritual celebrated at family sugar shacks. The comforting and familiar character reflects those layers — maple syrup doesn't appear by accident; it came from a specific tradition. The an…
