Yield Makes 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 15

10 cups fresh or frozen peas or petits pois (small, young green peas), divided
6 cups water, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground mace
2 cloves
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 to 4 green onions, trimmed and sliced crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 pound fresh baby spinach, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons minced fresh mint
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Diced toast for garnish (optional)
Shredded fresh calendula blossoms for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Put 8 cups of the peas and 4 cups of the water in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Add the salt, pepper, mace, cloves, thyme, and marjoram, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, and simmer for about 45 minutes, until the peas are very tender.
  • 2. Drain the peas, reserving the cooking liquid in the sauceupan. Puree the peas in a food processor or with a food mill. If using a food mill, discard the skins. Press the puree through a sieve into the reserved liquid, stirring to combine thoroughly. Cover and set aside to keep warm.
  • 3. Combine the remaining 2 cups of peas with the remaining 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, until the peas are just tender.
  • 4. While the second batch of peas is cooking, melt the butter in a sauté pan. Add the green onions, and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add the spinach and mint and stir together, cooking until the spinach has just wilted. Blend in the flour, and cook for about 1 minute.
  • 5. Drain the peas, reserving the cooking liquid, and stir the peas into the warm soup along with the spinach mixture. Heat until it begins to simmer, adding the reserved pea-cooking liquid-a little at a time-if the soup is too thick. Season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
  • 6. Pour the soup into a tureen, and garnish with diced toast and shredded calendula blossoms, if desired.

NORTH CROATIAN GREEN PEAS SOUP



North Croatian Green Peas Soup image

This is one of my grandmother recipes I have decipher from her manuscript. I am making the soup today, so this is how it goes:

Provided by nitko

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 5 portions, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

500 g green peas (fresh)
150 g onions (spring or green onion)
100 g carrots (or one medium carrot)
100 g bacon (dried, smoked pancetta)
5 g fresh parsley leaves
5 g celery leaves
50 g butter
1 tablespoon flour (all purpose)
1 liter beef stock
50 g sour cream
1/8 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon chives (minced)
5 g salt
3 g pepper

Steps:

  • Clean the green peas and put it into hot water for 5 minutes. Grate of slice carrot and sauté on butter; after a while, mince onion and sauté both on butter until onion is translucent.
  • Add finely sliced pancetta and sauté not more than 5 minutes. Add flour and fry about 2 minutes, than add cold water and make creamy liquid (like sauce veloute).
  • Cut green parts of spring onion, mince parsley and celery leaves and add into pot. Add green pea and about 1 liter of beef stock. Add salt and pepper.
  • Cook until green peas are soft. When soft, remove green pea and blend it into puree (leave 1/6 of peas untouched). You can blend it with stick blender so you do not have to remove geen pea. Add thyme and cook 15 minutes.
  • At the end add sour cream and minced chive. Serve with croutons.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen peas. Frozen peas are a great option if you don't have fresh peas on hand. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many peas to the pot, they won't cook evenly. Add them in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the peas just until they are tender. Overcooked peas will lose their flavor and color.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to your liking.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs or grated Parmesan cheese. This will add a pop of flavor and color.

Green peas soup without meat is a delicious and nutritious meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins.
