From the Florida Sun Sentinel Newspaper In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the split pea mix (reserve the seasoning packet), the potatoes and the onions. Return to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer about 2 hours. About 5 minutes before the cooking is finished, whisk in the contents of the seasoning packet. This makes about 8 cups. Note: When I make this easy, tasty soup, I triple the recipe so I have enough to freeze. Instead of using a whisk, I use my stick blender and blend it until smooth. It is a pretty orange color. I serve with a piece of parsley on the edge or sprinkle sunflower seeds on top. Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest by Susan Stier on Oct 17, 1998,
