1. Add the split peas to a large saucepan, cover with water, bring to a boil, and cook for 15 minutes. Drain and set aside, and rinse out the pot.
2. Meanwhile, add the peeled potatoes to another saucepan, cover with cold water, salt the water heavily, and then bring it to a boil and cook for 7 minutes. Drain and set aside. (I simply pour them into the same strainer I'm already using for my peas).
3. Heat the olive oil in your large saucepan. Add the onion and garlic and saute for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from burning. Add the cumin, pepper, and cayenne, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are softened and slightly browned.
4. Add the potatoes, split peas, vegetable broth, and celery. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a steady simmer and add the parsley if using. Continue to simmer until the potatoes and split peas are fully cooked. Turn off the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. (Alternately, you can blend the soup in batches in a blender or food processor).
