Prep: Dice 2 celery stalks, 1 large carrot, 1 onion, and chop 2 garlic cloves. Peel and cut 1 potato into ยฝ inch pieces.
Cook: Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the celery, carrot, onion, and ยฝ tsp ground cumin and saute for about 2 – 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1 minute longer.
Boil and Simmer: Add the 2 cups split peas, potato, 1 sprig thyme, 2 bay leaves, and pour in 6 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce it to a low simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Finish and Blend: Once the split peas and potato are tender, remove the bay leaves and thyme sprig. Add ยผ tsp liquid smoke and use an immersion blender to blend it to your desire texture. We like to do a half blend, keeping some texture, but you can blend it until smooth or choose not to blend at all.
