To make Cream of Pea Soup you need...
Clean the peas (shell them from pods) and boil in a small amount of water together with the roots (carrot/parsley), mash into a puree. If the peas are young, boil the empty pods in a separate pot (to flavour the stock).
Prepare a sauce from flour, butter, and the stock, put the puree into it, mix, then add the required amount of liquid, bring to a boil and add salt.
Add cream and a mixture of yolk with cream (or milk) to the finished soup when serving. Instead of cream, you can use butter.
Garnish with whole peas on top.
(The soup can also be prepared with rice water. In this case, there is no need to make a flour sauce; instead, it is better to boil 2-3 tablespoons of rice until soft and combine them with the puree).
