Ingredients:

  • 2 medium onions, chopped
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 lb sugar snap peas , cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 6 cups plus 2 1/2 tbsp water
  • 2 tsp salt , or to taste
  • 3 tbsp sour cream

Directions:

  1. Cook onions in oil in a wide 6-quart heavy pot over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add sugar snaps and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender and bright green, 6 to 8 minutes. Add sugar and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
  2. Purée pea mixture with 6 cups water in a blender in 6 batches until very smooth, about 30 seconds per batch, then pour through a very fine sieve, discarding solids (do not press on solids). Stir in salt and chill broth, covered, until very cold, about 8 hours. (Do not chill longer or soup will discolor.)
  3. Whisk together sour cream, zest, and remaining 2 1/2 tablespoons water in a small bowl, then pour through a very fine sieve into another small bowl (to remove air bubbles).
  4. Serve broth topped with lemon cream.
