Directions
California Pizza Kitchen’s Dakota Smashed Pea & Barley Soup,From topsecretrecipes.com I’ve never even tried the soup at the California Pizza Kitchen, but it sounds good. I’m posting it as much for my reference as anyone elses! 😉 Vegetable broth may be substituted for the chicken broth to make this soup vegan.,Anyone know if this recipe freezes well? Thank you!,1) I Just made this soup and it’s NOT the California Pizza Kitchen recipe I have (from CPK’s cookbook). The true CPK recipe I have is Vegetarian/Vegan…no chicken soup stock; 2) This soup is extremely watery. I followed this recipe completely (10 cups of liquid: 6 water, 4 chicken stock) so don’t know what happened.
