What garlic is to food, insanity is to art. |

"Cuisine is both an art and a science: it is an art when it strives to bring about the realization of the true and the beautiful, called le bon (the good) in the order of culinary ideas. As a science, it respects chemistry, physics and natural history. Its axioms are called aphorisms, its theorems recipes, and its philosophy gastronomy." |

This is the good part. Saute onions and garlic in water till starting
to turn yellow, add all other ingredients in a large pot with 2 1/2
cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer an hour (or
until peas are tender) and then puree in a blender. That's it!
Serve as a main meal with whole wheat pita bread. For a variation,
sprinkle fresh ripe diced tomato on top of soup (or this can be
blended in earlier). For those who remember the days when pea soup
used to have h*m or b*c*n in it, soy baco-bits, sprinkled in just
before serving, brings back that aura.
