AuthorNote: This homemade soup has been passed on from mother to daughter to grand-daughter. Pea soup (also called snert) is a popular winter soup in the Netherlands. Almost every area has its own version. It is served with a thick slice of homemade bread on a cold wintry evening... and if you can leave it, the soup tastes even better the next day.
