Chilled Pea and Mint Soup

This chilled pea and mint soup has the perfect balance of hearty and fresh flavors.

I didn’t want to do the traditional tomato gazpacho or the played out fruit soups that everyone has a million and one recipes for. So I was inspired by an old issue of English Chef Jamie Oliver’s mag (great name, great chef, great personality). All the prices are in pounds, all the measurements in metrics and there are a ton of features on shellfish and some form of pig in every other recipe it seems… but the picture of his chilled pea and mint soup just spoke to me so I went for it.
