Add the salt pork and veggies to the peas with a bay leaf, salt (optional), and the pigs knuckle. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, cover and cook for about two hours or until meat on the pig’s knuckle falls from the bone. (If foam forms on the top of the soup during cooking, remove with a slotted spoon.) Take the pig’s knuckle from the pot, dice the meat and reserve. Discard bone and bay leaf. Puree veggies in a blender. Return them and the meat to the soup, add the sliced sausage and simmer five minutes longer. NOTES : VEGETARIAN VERSION: Omit the salt pork, pig’s knuckle, sausage.
