Sweet peas soup

Dried split peas are often used for making pea soup. But dried peas lack the natural sweetness of fresh peas which gives pea soup a more nuanced flavor. In this recipe, frozen fresh peas are used. After simmering them in chicken broth, the peas are pureed with an immersion blender. No cream is added.
