This recipe was adapted from a friend. She had posted her pea soup on social media and it looked so amazing, so I messaged her for the recipe. I made quite a few changes when it came to the spices and I cooked mine in the Instant Pot to make my life easier.

I also tried to match the pea soup from United Bakers. United is a bakery/restaurant in Toronto that is very popular among the Jewish community. They are famous for their split pea soup among other recipes so I tried to replicate it as best as I could. It is not the same, but it is a good alternative if you don’t feel like schlepping to United to pick up a bowl.

Meanwhile, a friend just messaged me as I am writing this blog post telling me she has the coveted, secret recipe from United… so that will have to be for another day… in the meantime, trust me, this will do!

If you are looking for a hearty, cozy, fall/winter soup, this one is worth gossiping about!
