What not all housewives know
Spices
You shouldn't cook pea soup without spices: in this case, it won't be rich and impressive enough. Bay leaf and pepper are a must.
Asafoetida, powdered garlic and onion, turmeric and curry go well with legumes.
Make the soup spicy
Rarely does anyone expect that pea soup can surprise with something: its taste is familiar to almost everyone from distant childhood. Therefore, it makes sense to periodically add unusual components.
The best options for adding a spicy touch are habanero, ginger and chili.
Citrus note
This secret seems even more unexpected, but it can impress anyone. After you have already prepared the soup, pour in some lime juice.
This will give the dish a very original aroma and a slight sourness.
