Pea Soup Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Peas<\/strong>: Fresh peas are flooding the market right now, and they are superbly sweet and delicious, so that\u2019s what I used. That said, frozen will do just as well if you don't have any at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mint<\/strong> brightens up the split pea soup with its unique, cool flavor. Though I strongly recommend using fresh mint, I will not judge you if you stir in some dried leaves instead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cream<\/b> gives the soup a richer texture, a touch of sweetness, and that velvety finish. You can use regular cream instead of coconut cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add-ins: <\/strong>Throw in some parsley, basil, or cilantro if you prefer. A small bit of herb goes a long way toward \"waking up<\/em>\" the soup. My creamy pea soup is vegetarian, but you can add ham or bacon to it too.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
