I just used my regular blender. The trick is to let the liquid cool slightly before adding it to the blender and to also work in batches. Let me know how it comes out! Sour cream, salt & pepper really made this soup tasty. I was actually watching Nigella Lawson this week and she makes a similar soup, but adds fresh mozzarella. I bet that's rich! Hi Erin,

It's a good, cold day for some warm pea soup! And I don't even normally like peas! Q: do you have an immersion blender? I think I’m going to try this today.

I also thought about adding some of the more traditional pea soup items the next time I make this. I think diced carrots and ham would be a nice addition (after the soup is blended of course, not before). Ha ha Enjoy! Hanni,

I'm going to try this instead and see how it turns out. I'll probably skip the sour cream. Do you think the dish really needs it? If so, I'll probably veganize it with tofutti... yum!
