To make the Chilled Green Pea Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
In a pan over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and sauté 1 chopped onion and ½ a teaspoon minced thyme, about 5 minutes.
Add 1 minced clove garlic and ½ a teaspoon turmeric and sauté 1 minute more. Remove the pan from the heat.
In a blender or food processor, combine onion mixture with 2 cups vegetable stock, 10 ounces frozen peas, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ a teaspoon black pepper.
Blend until completely smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Top with thinly sliced radishes, pea shoots, reserved peas, chopped fresh dill, a drizzle of olive oil, and freshly ground black pepper if you wish. Serve and enjoy!
