i got a huge bag of frozen peas on sale for 2 bucks. so tonight i'm having pea soup tonight. i filled a bowl (just a normal size one) with the peas and let them thaw. i chopped a clove of garlic, added a pinch of mustard seed, pinch of cumin, and some soysauce. i think it was about 1.5 cups of peas. just before blending i added a cup or so of hot water so the soup will at least be a little warm.
i actually blended the soup in a tall cup using my stick blender. but this is usually done in a normal blender.
my cook book suggests adding avocado and cilantro, which sounds yummy, but i can't believe he didn't want to include raw garlic.
the soup is alright, very verdant. and sweeter than cooked peas.
