This quick and easy Pea Soup with Dill is ready in about 15 minutes. Made with fresh peas, served a touch of sour cream and zesty dill, it is truly full of flavor and absolutely perfect with a fresh crusty piece of bread.
If you enjoy split pea soup and the flavor of peas in general, you’ll probably dig fresh pea soup. It’s a little different from what you’re used to though! Fresh pea soup tastes like (surprise!) fresh peas, or frozen peas, if you’ve never had them fresh. Whereas split pea soup has a naturally savory, almost smoky flavor, with a thick, hearty texture, fresh pea soup is smoother with a touch of sweetness.
Pea soup is a quick and healthy lunch or dinner option. You will love it! The color and flavor of this soup are cheery trumpeters of spring. Make a big soup pot full as leftovers will keep in a sealed container in the fridge for about 3 days, or in the freezer for about 3 months.
Take it up a notch and try serving this Pea Soup with Dill along side some fresh baked bread. Try these bread recipes: another French Bread recipe, Rustic French Bread or homemade Ciabatta Bread.
