Potage - cream of spring vegetable soup

Although you’d never guess from the fresh taste, this soup is made from standard freezer standbys, frozen peas and spinach supplemented with a few herbs, spices, a touch of sherry and a little cream. The subtle flavoring lends a gorgeous background note without overwhelming the delicate vegetables. It’s just enough to make you want to taste again and again while wondering “Just what is in this?” <br /> <br />Despite the cream, it is rather light, and best served with a few lightly sauteed croutons, perhaps as a first course, or with a grilled sandwich for a light lunch. You couldn't go wrong sipping it from a mug as a pick me up. This soup is quick & easy, and may be served warm or chilled. <br /> <br />This recipe was originally passed on to me by my Mother, although I've made a few changes over the years.
