Ingredients
1 medium onion
1 large carrot (about 5 oz)
1 1/2 teaspoon butter
3 cup meat broth, hot
1 tablespoon savory (fresh, chopped fine)
1 teaspoon tarragon (fresh, chopped fine)
1 lb peas (cooked in lightly salted wate; r)
5 oz shrimp (deveined, cooked and cut in; to small pieces)
1/2 cup white wine, dry
2 tablespoon cream
1 cup champagne (demi sec)
Cooking Directions:
Chop the onion and carrot finely. Heat the butter in a pan and fry the vegetables for 5 minutes stirring continuously. Add the hot meat broth. Boil for 10 minutes.
Add savory, tarragon and peas. Bring to a boil and let cook for 8 minutes. Strain the soup and put it back into the pan.
Add shrimp. Simmer 5 minutes on medium heat. (Be sure the soup is not boiling.) Add white wine and cream. Take from the heat. Season if necessary. Add champagne and serve immediately.
NOTES:
* Fine pea soup with shrimp and champagne -- This is a recipe out of a German low-calorie cookbook. It is a simple recipe for a really delicate soup. It can be served as a festive appetizer or as a gourmet snack.
* The fresh spices can be substituted by dried spices.
* If you use canned shrimp, never let them boil. They would become tough and lose their delicate taste.
: Difficulty: easy to moderate. : Time: 40 minutes. : Precision: approximate measurement OK.
