    2       c            Dried split peas
    3       md           Yams, peeled and diced
    3                    Leeks, diced
    2       tb           Sliced fresh ginger
    4                    Celery stalks, diced
    3                    Carrots, diced
    1       t            Salt
    3       tb           Braggs aminos
                         Water
      1/8   ts           Cayenne pepper
 
   Place all the ingredients except the cayenne pepper in
   a large pot. Add water so that there are 2 inches of
   water over the vegetables. Cover, bring to a boil,
   turn down the heat and simmer for 2 hours, or until
   all the ingredients are mushy.  Stir often to prevent
   sticking. If the soup becomes too thick while it is
   cooking, add some boiling water, or your can thin it
   with a bit of water at the end of the cooking time for
   a lighter soup. Add cayenne pepper, adjust the
   seasonings, and serve.
