How to Make Chilled Canned Or Fresh Pea And Mint Soup
- Shell 2 cups of fresh peas (or use 1 cup frozen peas).
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 small finely chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Do not brown.
- Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup milk, 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock, shelled peas, 2-3 sprigs fresh mint, 1 teaspoon sugar, salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until peas are very tender.
- Let cool slightly. Puree the soup using an immersion blender, regular blender, or a fine-mesh sieve.
- Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream. Mix well.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill thoroughly.
