Provided by Chef John

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes

Time 3h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup leeks - halved lengthwise and chopped
1 pinch salt
4 cups chicken broth
ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pound sugar snap peas, ends and strings removed
2 fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon creme fraiche
2 fresh mint leaves, cut into very fine strips

Steps:

  • Pour olive oil into a large pot, set over medium heat, and add leeks to hot oil. Season leeks with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until leeks are soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Pour chicken broth into leeks; bring to a boil. Season with black pepper and cayenne pepper.
  • Stir peas into boiling broth mixture and add 2 mint leaves. Bring back to a boil and cook until peas are bright green and have started to soften, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Turn off heat; use a slotted spoon to transfer vegetables into a large blender, leaving liquid in pot. Pour half the liquid from the pot into the blender, place a folded towel on the blender lid, and pulse a few times to chop vegetables. Blend at high speed to puree vegetables. Add remaining liquid from pot to blender and liquefy the soup until smooth.
  • Pour soup from blender into a fine mesh strainer set over a bowl and use a spatula to push soup through the strainer, leaving the tough fibrous material behind.
  • Cool soup to room temperature, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 3 hours.
  • Season cold soup with salt and adjust cayenne pepper. Ladle soup into a serving bowl. Spoon creme fraiche into a plastic squeeze bottle and squeeze the creme fraiche over the top of the soup in a loose spiral. Use a skewer to pull the spiral into flower petal shapes, starting from the middle and quickly pulling the skewer through the creme to make pointed petal shapes. Serve garnished with strips of fresh mint.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Low Fat     Vegetarian     Kid-Friendly     Yogurt     Pea     Spring     Summer     Healthy     Freeze/Chill     Chill     Dinner     Small Plates

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
2 (16-ounce) bags frozen sweet peas (6 cups)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup Herbed Olive Oil

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened but not browned, 6-8 minutes. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 2 cups water, stir to combine, and bring to a boil. Add peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove pot from heat and stir in yogurt. Purée soup in a blender or in the pot using an immersion blender, thinning with water if soup is too thick, until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and let cool to room temperature. Transfer to a resealable container, cover, and chill at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • Divide soup among bowls and top each with a swirl of Herbed Olive Oil.
  • Do Ahead
  • The soup can be made and chilled for up to 2 days.

Tips:

  • Fresh ingredients: Use the freshest peas possible for the best flavor. Fresh peas are available in season during the summer months.
  • Frozen peas: If fresh peas are not available, frozen peas can be used. Just be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Cooking the peas: The peas can be cooked in a variety of ways. They can be boiled, steamed, or microwaved. Boiling is the quickest method, but steaming or microwaving will help to preserve the peas' nutrients.
  • Chilling the soup: The soup should be chilled for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the soup to become nice and cold.
  • Garnishes: Garnish the soup with fresh herbs, such as mint or basil. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Chilled pea soup shooters are a delicious and refreshing appetizer or light lunch. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Be sure to experiment with different garnishes and toppings to find your favorite combination.
