Green Pea Vichyssoise
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 3/4 teaspoon dried tarragon (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- black pepper
- 1 large russet potato, peeled and chopped
- 1 (16 ounce) package frozen peas
- plain nonfat yogurt (to garnish)
- In a large saucepot, saute the onion in the olive oil 5 minutes. Add the broth, seasonings, and potato. Bring to a boil and coook until potato is tender, about 10 minutes. Add the peas and cook 5 minutes longer.
- Puree the soup. You may use an immersion or regular blender to do this or a food mill. If using the immersion blender I prefer to strain the soup to take out the pea coverings using a fine sieve. The food mill does this for you.
- To serve: Soup may be served hot or cold. Top each serving with a swirrl of plain non-fat yogurt.
