I love chorizo, I don't think I'd have thought to pair it with milk but it looks like it would match well and might even tone down some of the more overpowering aspects of the chorizo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-54578975526312578432008-04-11T13:08:00.000+02:002008-04-11T13:08:00.000+02:00Thanks Jeanne - ah, see you've worked out my secre...Thanks Jeanne - ah, see you've worked out my secret, put crispy chorizo on anything and it and whatever it is on will be immediately eaten!

I'm sure, though, that he wouldn't even spot the pulses in this - he'd be blinded by the indulgend chorizo ;-) Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe (which I'm now dying to make) and for participating in WTSIM this month!Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12325204219395014329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-49888233601188699362008-04-06T16:55:00.000+02:002008-04-06T16:55:00.000+02:00Thanks Anna - the final product was not as green a...Thanks Anna - the final product was not as green as I'm used to in say traditional pea and ham soup but not quite as yellow as they appear - the red of the chorizo really confuses the situation.Haalohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03291206056540101155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-44033786355208867482008-04-05T14:26:00.000+02:002008-04-05T14:26:00.000+02:00i really love that photo of the split peas. so gre...i really love that photo of the split peas. so green and vibrant.<BR/><BR/>kind of cool how they turn from green to gold after cooking.Anna (Morsels and Musings)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13499845848225762847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-9050504543206945072008-04-05T08:12:00.000+02:002008-04-05T08:12:00.000+02:00Oh my goodness that looks divine!
