Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large soup pot over medium high heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic and cook until soft, stirring frequently so they don't burn, about 5 minutes.
- Add vegetable broth, peas, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and then cover and simmer until the peas are soft, about 15-20 minutes.
- Using a immersion blender, blend the soup until creamy. Alternatively you could use a blender. If using a blender, carefully put soup in blender in batches, and pulse until creamy, being careful as the soup is very hot. Put soup back in pot if using a blender.
- Add in heavy cream and stir to thicken up. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. Optional - add some fresh parsley or mint on top before serving.

SLOW COOKER SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HORSERADISH CREAM
Yellow or green split peas are consumed around the world because they are cheap, nonperishable and highly nutritious. Preparing them in a slow cooker makes for an affordable, delicious meal-in-a-bowl that requires nothing more than combining all of the ingredients, then simmering for several hours. Don't skip the horseradish cream swirled in at the end; it is the work of just a few minutes, and it makes this humble dish feel special. To make the soup vegetarian, use water instead of chicken stock, increase the smoked paprika to 1 teaspoon, omit the ham, and stir in a spoonful of white or yellow miso paste at the end, which will add savoriness. (You can also prepare this in a pressure cooker.)

FRESH PEA SOUP

Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen peas. Frozen peas are a great option if you don't have fresh peas on hand. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
- Don't overcook the peas. Peas should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked peas will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Use a good quality mushroom cream sauce. The mushroom cream sauce is what really makes this soup special. Be sure to use a sauce that is flavorful and creamy.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a touch of lemon juice or white wine for a little extra flavor.
- Serve the soup immediately. Pea soup is best served hot. Garnish with fresh herbs or croutons, if desired.
Conclusion:
Pea soup with mushroom cream sauce is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy texture and flavorful broth, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
