Instructions
- Place stock, water, and ham bone in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil on medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour. Remove ham bone. Skim off excess fat.
- Stir in peas and seasonings. Cook on medium heat for 5 minutes or until peas are heated through. With the center part of the cover removed to let steam escape, puree the mixture in batches in a blender on high speed until smooth. Return the pureed mixture to the saucepan. (Or puree the mixture in the saucepan with an immersion blender.) Stir in cream.
- Ladle into soup bowls. Serve with ham, sour cream, and green onions.
