Adapted from Jane Brody's Good Food Book 1. Place peas & water in large, heavy saucepan, bring water to boil, boil peas for 2 minutes, turn off heat, let stand 1 hour.
2. Heat a nonstick skillet (or use broth or other liquid), add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery and cook stirring for about 5 minutes. Add to soaked peas.
3. Add broth, tamari, pepper, dill, and liquid smoke. Bring to boil, reduce to low, and simmer soup, partially covering pan for about 1½ hours. Stir occassionally to avoid scorching and add water if needed.
4. In a blender or food processor, puree the soup, thinning to desired consistency w/broth or milk. Heat before serving. The book says it makes about 8 servings, but that depends upon your appetite.
