Stove-Top Cream of Pea Soup recipe

.

Easy to pack and perfect as crudités for that favorite dip, the crunchy texture and sweet taste of carrots is popular among both adults and children. Although they are shipped around the country from California throughout the year, locally grown carrots are in season in the summer and fall when they are the freshest and most flavorful.

Although a "soup," this dish is really a dessert. It's cold and creamy and makes a perfect ending to a summer barbeque.

Mom's recipe

I LOVE THIS RECIPE:) Asparagus salad is typical of many Chinese vegetable salads, in that the vegetable is first steamed, then cooled, before slicing and dressing.

Spinning out the juice from cherry tomatoes makes the salad tasty but not watery. You can use this technique in all the tomato salads. And the reduction of the tomato juice adds the tangy flavor to the dressing.
