Erwtensoep, affectionately known as 'Snert,' is the definitive Dutch winter comfort food, a thick split pea soup that is almost a meal in itself. It is traditionally made with dried green split peas, various vegetables like celeriac and leeks, and fatty cuts of pork including smoked sausage (rookworst). The hallmark of a perfect Snert is its consistency; it is said that a spoon should be able to stand upright in the bowl. It is traditionally served with slices of rye bread topped with 'Katenspek' (smoked and boiled bacon). In Amsterdam, it is the go-to fuel for cold, damp days spent walking along the canals.
