👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Drain the soaked peas. Place the peas, pork, and chopped onion in a large pot.

   💡 プロのコツ: Soaking the peas overnight is crucial for even cooking and digestibility.
2. 2

   Add the water to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer.

   ⏱️ 2-3 hours

   💡 プロのコツ: Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during the first hour of cooking.
3. 3

   Stir occasionally to prevent the peas from sticking to the bottom of the pot. The soup should thicken as it cooks.

   💡 プロのコツ: If the soup becomes too thick, add a little more water.
4. 4

   Once the peas are very soft and the pork is tender, remove the pork from the pot. Shred or dice the pork and return it to the soup.

   💡 プロのコツ: Be careful when handling hot pork.
5. 5

   Season the soup with salt, pepper, and marjoram (if using). Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

   💡 プロのコツ: Salt is often added towards the end of cooking, as pork can be salty.
6. 6

   Serve hot, traditionally with a dollop of mustard and slices of dark rye bread.

   💡 プロのコツ: Hernekeitto is often followed by 'pannukakku' (baked pancake) for dessert on Thursdays.
