Here’s a cool summer recipe from our friends at True, a company that knows a thing or two about cool. After enjoying the chilled pea soup from the recipe below check out the True Beverage Dispenser featured here. It’s quite a cool product by itself.
CHILLED PEA SOUP WITH FRESH MINT
Makes 4 Servings
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon light olive oil
3 cups water1 large shallot- chopped
30 leaves of fresh mint1 lb. peas- fresh or best quality frozen1/4 cup heavy cream1 cup Idaho potato- cut into 2″ piecesSalt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
In a heavy bottom sauce pan sauté on low heat the shallot in the olive oil until tender and translucent. Add the potatoes and the water. Bring to a boil then turn to a simmer cook until the potatoes are fork tender.
If your peas are frozen, keep them frozen. If the peas are fresh, keep them very cold in the refrigerator.
Place the frozen or very cold peas and mint in a blender. If the amount of peas you are using exceeds over half of your blender pitcher work in multiple batches.
Bring your potato liquid back to a boil. Add the very hot potatoes and liquid to the blender with the peas, using just enough liquid to cover the peas. Cover the blender and working very carefully pulse the blender a few times until you are certain the liquid will not come out of the top of the blender. Blend on high speed until you have a smooth puree of your desired consistency.
Strain through a mesh strainer into a stainless steel container and immediately chill over ice. The quicker it gets chilled, the more green it will remain.
Add the heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper.
