I picked up some take out split pea soup from a very good deli over the weekend for a quick dinner. DH said everyone was raving about the soup(New Sagaya, for those familiar with Anchorage). One bite told me the secret---there were tiny LeSeurre peas scattered throughout the soup, and each spoonful had a delightful refreshing bite of a few whole peas. I thought this was just brilliant. It's not pea soup season, but needed to share this delightful surprise.
