Is Soup Aux Pois without ham heresy?

For Soup Aux Pois, has anyone subbed 1) lard and 2) not used a ham hock... We were just at La Buche in Quebec City on a food tour and I think that is what they said!

I hope you had many good experiences and tastes on that food tour in Quebec City.

Your question is serious or a joke or both?
No, heresy only to its devotees.

There are many great versions of split pea soup. I know of at least four - with hot dogs, with chicken, with smoked turkey, vegetarian.

And here's an article with 15 variations.

As long as it can maintain the richness and flavor of the soup, removing the ham soupe aux pois can also be a delicious and personalized choice.
