“Habitant”, French Canadian, it’s what they call split pea soup … love this going to do up a ham hock soon so I’m going to make split pea soup with the meat I take off that…. I cook my split peas in ham stock 😊 It’s soup season!!! (To clarify: Habitant literally = inhabitant, habitant soup = split pea soup).

I went to Sobey’s Grocery Store in Nova Scotia to get ham hocks, the young meat cutter at the meat counter didn’t know what a ham hock was. I couldn’t believe it. I will have to wait for local farmers to sell their meat later in the season.

I had to pause at 13:30 to order 200 lids. Thanks for the pointer! I've canned pea soup (and bean, potato with ham, beef vegetable, chili...) and it's wonderful to have on the shelf. Take it easy, Leisa, and rest. You are appreciated.

I always love making recipes at home that way you control the ingredients ie; salt/pepper etc.. More healthy than store canned.

Enjoyed your video,Soup looks very good. My husband loved pea soup. Unfortunately, I lost him in Jan 2021, and I have not canned since. Don't have family, and at 74 it isn't much fun canning for yourself.Just lost the incentive after losing him, but still have canned meats that I did before he passed. I did go on and buy some extra ForJar lids a short while ago just to have on hand in case I want to can later. You never know, so wanted to have them on hand. Thank you for telling us about them, or I would not have known. I don't often comment, but enjoy your channel very much.

I am also on my own and still love canning but in smaller loads. I am seriously considering investing in a Nesco electric pressure canner which does 4 quarts at a time or 5 pints. Watching lots of videos about it and, for me, it's looks like a great way to keep the pantry shelves full even for one. It saves everyday meal prep and if company comes, open another pint! Just something to think about besides the fact, you are not really alone. From my canning heart to yours! LOL!

​@@danadiehl2711Please keep considering getting the Nesco/Carey electric canner. I bought one and have been canning everything! It's so easy and fun to just do small batches. I can take advantage of sale items, try new recipes, and share with friends without breaking the bank. I have been using it for 3 years now and definitely recommend it to all. Hope this helps.

i love split pea soup ---my mom made it with a ham bone so there was still some ham in there--what is funny about it is she hated the soup but she still made it for my dad and us!!:)

So glad that you are back. Please do not overdo, like I just heard that you did. I ordered the Forjars lids and am so excited to be getting them. I am ordering more! I made your beef stew. Hurrah! And it is good. Split pea soup is on the list to do. Shelves are getting a bit bare on our island in SE Alaska, so stocking up for the winter. Take care and I am learning so much from you.

Split pea soup is one of my favorites. Many times I make a broth with a ham bone and then cook the peas and veggies without meat. Delicious. Today I ordered more Forjar lids!

That soup looks great! I think I would be more inclined to boil down a bone from a picnic ham and use some of that meat for the soup, too. But, that's just the way my Dad always did it when he made pea soup. It's been a very long time since I made pea soup, so I might just have to put that on my "to do" list for soups in the near future! Thanks for the memories, Leisa!

I LOVE split pea soup. A real comfort food from my childhood. I also placed my 3rd order of forsjars lids. Have used 400. I order 200 each time. I have only had 1 buckle. Operator error!! I love these lids. Thanks for this video Leisa.

Time to make the soup! Since being diagnosed with a wheat allergy I’ve had to learn to make my own convenience foods and this is one of my favorites

This soup is so lovely! I'm rather odd about equal distribution of meat throughout the jars. Since I make the soup with ham hock broth I've experimented w/ putting the diced ham equally in each jar, then adding the soup to each jar.

I will definitely be making this to can. Thank you.

Leisa, I have been canning all day and watching Canuary videos waiting on the canner. Last batch was your split pea with ham soup. I had one jar that did not seal (my error, I'm sure) so I had some of it. OMG It was awesome!!! I tried someone else's bean with bacon but had to dump the broth and start over because the seasoning she used do not suit our tastes. But your cooking is the bomb! I need a bigger canner cause I just started canning and am using a Carey, which I love, but for this soup, I need to make a batch the size of yours!!! It was THAT good! Thank you! I think I will stick with your soup recipes to stock my pantry. You let the real flavor of the food shine through. This will be a staple. Next canning session, I will do 4 batches of this soup alone!!!! Oh, and you are not the only one who gets excited hearing those jars pop! LOL

Now you made me want to make this, I love this soup

Hi, Leisa! I'm a newcomer here and realize you might already have the answer to your question. After reading a number of comments, I didn't see that answer come up. Habitant Peas Soup is a French Canadian recipe which is made with yellow split peas and I'm fairly sure a good amount of garlic (probably powder or granulated). I'm reasonably certain this is the only difference from your split pea soup recipe. Your site is awesome!

Yumm.

Thank you so much for this vlog. I have a favourite moroccan red lentil carrot soup which I look forward to using this method with. There isn’t any meat, but the red lentils, carrots, onions and spices are similar.

Split peas are a bit like oatmeal or grits, kind of bland on their own. You have to put nice tasting items in there to make them taste wonderful. Like she did with potatoes and onions, ham, stock. Split pea soup is a bit like potato soup - a real comfort soup.

I was thinking about split pea soup 😊

Well, know what I will be canning next week.

I can my leftover ham every time we have ham for a meal. So far so good.

Leisa, I've had more lid failures than ever this year! I am restocking with ForJars lids BUT I'd like to know if there is a way to use my remaining lids (mostly wide-mouth) that is more likely to be successful. For example, do you think recipes with shorter processing times, or steam canning versus pressure canning? It's a lot of lids to save just for vacuum sealing my dry goods so I'd like to use them if I can. I'm so glad you're back! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Used my Forjars today...held up better than one of my jars...BTW... I found out what cloudy water is... apple butter.. gonna be a fun cleanup

Ironic! I got very brave this morning and took out my Christmas ham bones and basically made a huge stock pot full of split pea soup and basically along the lines from the ball canning book like yours. I just got mine out of the canner and they look different than I had expected, so of course I am hoping I didn't take too many liberties in how I canned it. That is why I got on here to Google it...of course u saved the day for me. U veered off the recipe about as much as I did. I soaked the peas last night and used ham bones...and used bay leaves and all spice. There is about 1/3 of liquid on top, bottom is the peas and veggies. Please warn me or reprimand me if I crossed the line 😁👍👍

How did you keep the extra jars warm while the canner does it’s magic? Thank you for sharing that you can pressure can split pea soup with ham. On my to do list

Hi Leisa. Happy New Years!! I'm new to your channel and loving it. I was wondering what you do with the jars that are waiting to go into the canner when your first batch is processing. Do you keep them on the counter? I want to make this but I will run into the same problem and don't want to mess it up. I also want to thank you for mentioning using the ham bone. I was wondering that when I first started watching this video. I have had a ham bone in the freezer waiting for me to make this soup and now that it's New Years Eve I will have a 2nd ham bone to replace the first one.... Or I just might have to keep canning the soup. I hope you are well and have a blessed holiday

Thank you for your video. Sorry to hear you've been under the weather. Feel MUCH better soon eh? I love the way you cook. "THERE!" you say as the onions get tossed. Oh, oh, I canned the Ham. All the time, ... I just treat it as a processed meat and add liquid to the jar of cut up Ham along with a tsp of Onion Soup mix. It hasn't killed me yet. It's the Ham bone I use to make my split pea soup. I'll leave lots of meat on the bone and simmer it for a couple of days with onions, carrots and some celery, if I have it. BTW, it's now a terrible time finding Split Peas around these parts. I haven't seen them in stock for months and the dried bean section is shrinking every month. It's freaking crazy. I thought I found Yellow Split Peas in the International section of the store so I grabbed a couple of big bags and read on the label when I got home I had bought Split Yellow Chick Peas, .. lol, .. I bet they'll work just as good too. Back to the soup. After fishing out the fallen apart bones, I'll strain the stock for lumps of meat and whatnot, (don't you love that meaty whatnot?) and set it somewhere cool to harden any fat for easy removal. After sanctifying the soup stock in such a manner I desecrate it by adding more water and the Split Yellow Peas, more onion, and salt and pepper to taste, to be cooked for an hour or more making sure to add lots of meat and whatnot. Only time can tell with a good soup. When I believe the Peas are soft enough I jar the crap up and pressure can it for the time it takes to process the meat with 10 lbs pressure here at sea level. I couldn't believe how thick it got. I have to add a pint of water to a pint of soup when I open it in order to turn it back into soupy soup. Sum good too. BTW, I'm not "sold" on those ForJar lids "yet" just because they use a food grade silicone. As far as I'm concerned, there's no such thing as food grade poison. I guess I've worked with too much silicone around water tanks on boats and understand how easy it leeches into water to ever believe it could be safe. We never allowed silicone to come into contact with the drinking water. Waste water? no problem, ... but never potable water. If they used a natural rubber like the original old time lids were made with, I'd be impressed. Pass that on to the Boss of "ForJars". AND! Remember, pain is your bodies way of telling you to stop doing what you're doing. Are you listening? Now I'm not one to tell anyone "not to push it", .. so I won't. Be good, be safe, .. and have a great one!

Don't know why the title mentioned canning with a specific brand of lid. Canning is canning. Lids are lids, only difference is in price. Must be some promotional compensation in there somewhere. Not knocking, just stating. Love your channel. Probably the best knowledge available right here.

I love peas so I am excited to try this soup but I might add half chicken stock half water but no ham thank you for shareing 🙂

I use chix stock all the time- especially when I don't have any ham to add to it. As a matter of fact, I prefer my split pea soup "smooth" and not chunky. Another tip to make it taste great is to add a pat or two of butter when you heat it up and serve it. Yum!

Leisa it just occurred to me (and my lightening-fast mind) to see why the name 'Habitant Soup' after that recipe name. I've wondered for years, haha. Turns out Habitant was a soup brand from 1918 on so I'm guessing that split pea soup must have been nicknamed Habitant due to that association. It is time for me to make another batch of this but I'll do half-pint jars, hubby didn't care for it because the peas came out too soft for his liking. Who likes Al Dente pea soup? Apparently, only him. Isn't this recipe mind boggling with the density that comes out of the canner? And they say we can't safely can pumpkin butter?! Oh well, I understand. But honestly...their recipe produces 'pea sludge' in the jars yet perfectly safe, yay! I just can't believe you were canning so soon after major surgery. ::Not Worthy!:: Now would you grab your knitting and settle into a recliner for Pete's Sake?! Love you!

They were the only kind of canned pea soup that my parents would occasionally buy because it was OK, but it was also very expensive. Usually, my Dad would just make pea soup from scratch with the bone left over from a ham we had from the day before. It was definitely much better than Habitant in the can! ;)

Habitant Pea Soup is made by Campbells. It used to be made in Canada in Quebec but has now moved to America. When they moved they changed the recipe and it is much thinner now and not as tasty. Unfortunately I don't buy it anymore. It used to be my family's favourite but not now. When I make this soup myself I use the yellow split peas. I may try this way as we just cooked a large ham and I usually make soup and I also use the water that the ham is cooked in to cook navy beans to use as a side dish.
