Steps:
- Clean the leeks, removing the tough, dark parts and discard. Chop the leeks and place in a large saucepan with the drained marrowfat peas, lettuce and spinach leaves, chervil, half the butter, salt, sugar, and one-cup of cold water.
- Bring to a boil, then lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 40-minutes.
- Lightly blend, process or stick blender the contents of the pan (I leave some texture).
- Add the remaining 3-cups of water, and stir until it comes to a boil. Remove from heat.
- Heat the green peas in a small saucepan for a minute or two.
- Add the remaining butter and the heated green peas to the marrowfat peas.
- To serve, garnish with a swirl of yogurt and a small parsley sprig.
- *I soaked mine for two-days (second day refrigerated) because I couldn't continue with the recipe due to a commitment. Didn't hurt the peas a bit.

FRESH PEA SOUP
This soup is known in France as Potage Saint-Germain, a name that comes from a suburb of Paris where peas used to be cultivated in market gardens. If fresh peas are not available, use frozen peas, but thaw and rinse them before use. Croutons make an excellent garnish!

Steps:
- Make the croutons:
- In a bowl drizzle the bread cubes with the butter, tossing them to coat them well, and in a shallow baking dish bake them in a preheated 350°F. oven, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until the croutons are golden and crisp. Season the croutons with salt. The croutons may be made 1 day in advance and kept in an airtight container.
- Make the soup:
- In a large saucepan cook the leeks in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are softened, add the broth and 2 cups water, and bring the mixture to a boil. Add the peas and the lettuce and simmer the mixture, covered partially, for 10 minutes, or until the peas are tender. Stir in the mint and in a blender or food processor purée the soup in batches. The soup may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Return the soup to the pan, season it with salt and pepper, and reheat it over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is hot.
- In a small bowl beat the cream until it is thickened slightly but still pourable and season it with salt. Ladle the soup into bowls, drizzle drops of the cream on each serving, and draw a skewer or knife through the drops, forming decorative patterns. Serve the soup with the croutons.

THE BEST FRESH PEA SOUP
I'm not a pea person. The only time I ever chose to eat peas was fresh, cold peas in a big salad slathered in ranch dressing. Then I was at Trader Joe's and this bag of frozen, organic peas was calling my name. I found this recipe in The Cook's Encyclopedia of Vegetartan Cooking by Linda Fraser. This soup is amazing and easy. It can be an elegant start to a full course meal or just a simple, easy dinner served with a salad and crusty bread. Either way, you won't be disappointed. This soup is known in France as Potage Saint-Germain, a name that comes from a suburb of Paris where peas used to be cultivated in market gardens. Sounds good to me.
