Do you want to know more about the cold cream of peas, lettuce and mint?
We already knew that peas and mint make a very good combination. If we also add lettuce with its mild flavor, we will be giving it a plus of nutrients.
You can use the lettuce that you like the most. Can be roman, oak leaf, iceberg, trocadero, etc. Personally, I like the roman and the trocadero. And I usually avoid endive because it gives more bitter touches.
I recommend that you use those ugliest leaves that, normally, we do not put in the salad because they are a bit withered. You just need to remove the edges that are usually brown and that's it.
You can make this recipe with frozen or natural peas and take advantage if they are in season. If you use you don't need to defrost frozen peas to make this recipe.
You can also make this recipe with water or broth. For one vegan dietRemember to use a vegetable broth that does not contain any meat.
And to serve it, you can opt for bowls or shots. This option is very good if you plan have a buffet or a casual party.
