     Title: Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup w/Horseradish Cream
Categories: Vegetables, Herbs, Dairy, Citrus
     Yield: 7 servings

     3 tb Olive oil
     1    Yellow or red onion, minced
     3    Celery ribs; thin sliced
     1 lg Carrot; chopped
     5 lg Garlic cloves; smashed &
          - chopped
   1/2 ts Smoked paprika
   1/2 ts Garlic powder
     2    Fresh thyme sprigs, leaves
          - removed
          +=OR=+
   1/2 ts Dried thyme
     2    Fresh or dried bay leaves
          Salt & black pepper
     1 lb Smoked ham hock
     1 lb Green or yellow split peas
 5 1/4 c  Chicken stock (or water)
   1/4 c  Dry white wine or vermouth
   1/2    Lemon, juiced (about 1 tb)
     1 c  Sour cream
     2 tb Jarred, drained horseradish
     1 ts Dijon mustard

 In a 6 to 8 quart slow cooker, combine the oil, onion,
 celery, carrot, garlic, smoked paprika, garlic powder,
 thyme, bay leaves, 2 teaspoons salt and a few generous
 grinds of pepper. Add the ham hock, split peas, stock
 and wine, and cook on low until the peas are tender, 8
 to 10 hours.

 Discard the bay leaves. Transfer the ham hock to a bowl.
 Using two forks, pull the meat from the ham hock,
 discard the bone and return the meat to the pot. Stir in
 the lemon juice, then taste the soup, adding more salt
 and pepper if necessary. The soup will thicken as it
 sits; if it is too thick for your taste, stir in a bit
 of warm broth or water.

 Combine the sour cream, horseradish and mustard in a
 small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Serve the
 soup with the horseradish cream for topping.
