Green pea soup in bowls

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 6 cups shelled sweet peas (or 2 16-oz bags, frozen)
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup Herbed Olive Oil

Directions

Melt butter in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened but not browned, about 6–8 minutes. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 2 cups water, stir to combine, and bring to a boil. Add peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 2 minutes.

Remove pot from heat and stir in yogurt. Purée soup in a blender or in the pot using an immersion blender, thinning with water if soup is too thick, until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and let cool to room temperature. Transfer to a resealable container, cover, and chill at least 2 hours or up to overnight.

Soup can be made and chilled for up to 2 days. To serve, divide soup among bowls and top each with a swirl of herbed olive oil.
