I don’t see it done her way anywhere! She adds…
This soup has split peas in it, but it is not thick; it has a thin broth! With the smoked sausage, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, the seasoning amount has some heat, but not a lot. Start with the 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Increase it to 1/2 teaspoon if you want more kick. If you don’t like heat at all, just…
