Welcome to the green oasis of the kitchen, where we embrace the sweet goodness of nature's peas in a healthy symphony of flavors. This green pea soup isn't just a bowl, it's a loving embrace of pure, comforting flavor and nutrition. By mixing the frosty peas with fresh parsley leaves and mild onions, we create a culinary journey straight from the kitchen garden to your table.
The ingredients, carefully selected to create balance and harmony, include the frozen green peas that not only provide a vibrant color but are also rich in protein and fiber. They are accompanied by fresh parsley, yellow onion and garlic that dance together in a fragrant orchestra. A splash of dry white wine adds a subtle touch of elegance, while chicken broth and creamy crème fraîche contribute to the smooth texture.
