How to cook pea soup with smoked meats in a slow cooker

The recipe for pea soup in a multicooker is much simpler, for example, you can immediately pour all the ingredients along with peas, smoked ribs, brisket, potatoes and vegetables with water (preferably boiling water), add salt and spices and immediately cook in a Panasonic multicooker on the “stew” mode for 2 hours (many models have a “soup” program). This pea soup recipe comes without any extra frying, but if anyone wants to fry it, please do! To do this, vegetables for pea soup are fried on the “baking” program, chopped washed peas are added (by the way, I rarely soak them for a slow cooker, everything turns out great, even pea puree), smoked meats..... and then as I described.

By the way, here is a video recipe for pea soup with smoked ribs in a Redmond multicooker (REDMOND RMC-M4502) from the YouTube channel:
