Cookbook Countdown#15: Pea soup

 I have this bag of dried green peas (from my pea shoots growing expedition)

and thought might as well cook them.  Soaked them in the morning (should have

soaked them the night before - hence it would require a shorter cooking time

(there was quite a fair bit of soup - I put half to chill in the fridge)

garnish was finely chopped mint leaves mixed with creme fraiche

and toasted almond flakes

from pages 270-271 of

Hugh Fernley-Whittingstall's River Cottage Every Day

The group at The Cottage Cooking Club

headed by the lovely leader

~ Andrea of the Kitchen Lioness ~

is back! 

We are attempting to cook from both River Cottage Every Day (RCED) for all,

and River Cottage Love Your Leftovers (RCLYL) - optional!

I will do a round up of the dishes I make from Hugh's book on the 28th

of each month, but since I cannot wait that long, I am posting them as I make them!

I'm co-hosting Cookbook Countdown together with Joyce of Kitchen Flavours. If you are like us, who love to collect cookbooks and have an overcrowding bookshelf (or bookshelves!), yet most of the books have not been used at all, now is the time to change that. Join us at Cookbook Countdown
