Chilled Pea Soup Shooters
- 6 scallions
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 10-oz. packages frozen green peas, or 4 cups fresh
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
- Additional mint, optional
- Thinly slice white parts of 3 scallions. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sliced scallions and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add peas and mint. Pour in broth and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring often, until peas are very tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Working in small batches, transfer soup to a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth. Pour into a glass bowl; cool for 15 minutes. Loosely cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until well chilled, at least 4 hours.
- Before serving, stir yogurt into soup. Thinly slice all but 1 inch of green parts of remaining scallions. Season soup with salt and pepper, if desired. Pour into chilled shot glasses; garnish with scallions or mint, if desired. Serve cold.
