Inspired by the classic Pea & Ham Soup, we have created this delicious Smoky Vegan Pea Soup using our Mellow Yellow Oak Smoked Rapeseed Oil. Adding a wonderfully deep smoky flavour, using our oak smoked rapeseed oil is perfect in this recipe and works so well with the fresh flavour of the peas. By stirring in a little extra smoked oil at the end of the recipe, it really does add an incredible depth of flavour to the soup.
This recipe uses Mellow Yellow Oak Smoked Rapeseed Oil which is slowly smoked for 48 hours over oak wood chips. With a robust depth of flavour, our finest quality smoked oil has warming oak notes to create a rich and complex oil. Simply click here to find your nearest stockist.
