Directions
Chilled Summer Lettuce, Lovage and Garden Pea Soup, A delightful and refreshing chilled soup for summer – this savoury soup takes its flavour from freshly chopped lovage leaves, which impart a savoury, lemony and celery-like taste I like to serve this pale green soup in clear glass bowls for maximum impact, with a few chopped leaves sprinkled on top and a swirl of cream This soup makes an elegant starter for any summer event or a light luncheon dish Do not be tempted to add more lovage then is suggested, it is a very strong flavoured herb and can be overpowering if used with a heavy hand!
