"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Personal Notes:
Anyone crazy enough to marry into the family must first pass the "Split Pea Soup Test". Mom runs the test. If the potential member finds the soup palatable, he/she is "in"! Actually, we love it. Especially Rod. But then, he passed the test.

I like to add sliced carrots with the celery and potatoes.
