I just ruined a gallon of split pea soup that I was making. Damn!

Advertisements [?]

I had been cooking it for an hour when I remembered a smoked ham hock that I had in the freezer. I pulled the ham hock out and threw it in the soup pot. Now, thirty minutes later, the delightful smells of bay and onions and peas that I had been enjoying have been replaced with a nauseating heavy odor. Seems the ham hock is rancid. Nothing to do now but let the soup cool and throw it out. Fortunately, I have another bag of split peas and all the ingredients for another pot of soup. Meatless, this time.
