Directions
In a large 5 to 6 quart pot bring to a boil water, split peas, celery, onion, thyme and bay leaves. Reduce heat and simmer covered about 20 minutes or until split peas are a little soft.
Add carrots, garlic, basil and oregano, bring to a second boil then continue simmering covered until split peas are very tender and are dissolving to form a thick broth. Add potato and simmer until potato is tender but still firm.
Turn burner to lowest heat. Add green onions, spike tamari sea salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Add peas if desired. Heat gently stirring until peas are tender.
