This soup should be made with fresh vegetables. Serve with a bread and cheese platter as they do in Finland. If you can't get fresh shelled green peas, use frozen tiny green peas.

This soup is a great way to use up summer vegetables. It's also a very healthy and filling meal. I love the addition of pearl barley, which gives the soup a nice chewy texture.

This soup is a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time. I would also recommend using low-sodium broth.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much broth. I would recommend using less broth and more vegetables.

This soup is okay, but it's not my favorite. I think it needs more flavor. I would recommend adding some more spices, like cumin or paprika.

I'm not a fan of this soup. The flavors are too strong and the texture is too thick. I think it would be better with less vegetables and more broth.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I think it needs more salt and pepper. I also think it would be better with some fresh herbs, like parsley or cilantro.
