English Pub Split Pea Soup

For a less chunky soup, puree in batches in a blender or food processor. I used Coleman's prepared mustard when testing this recipe. If you can't find English mustard, horseradish mustard is a good substitute.

Ingredients:
1 meaty ham bone
1 1/3 cups dried green split peas, rinsed
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
1 sweet onion, chopped
4 cups water
1 bottle (12 ounces) light beer
1 tablespoon prepared English mustard
1/2 cup 2% milk
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Additional minced fresh parsley, optional

Directions:
Place ham bone in a 4-qt. slow cooker. Add peas, celery, carrot and onion. Combine water, beer and mustard; pour over vegetables. Cook, covered, on high 5-6 hours or until peas are tender.

Remove ham bone from soup. Cool slightly, trim away fat and remove meat from bone; discard fat and bone. Cut meat into bite-sized pieces; return to slow cooker. Stir in remaining ingredients. If desired, top with additional minced parsley.
