I had the vivid green pureed fresh pea soup at Madeleine Kamman’s restaurant over 30 years ago but still remember it. Last week I spotted a copy of Madeleine Cooks; it was new despite being printed in 1986 - this was Ocean State Job Lot so I assume it was in some warehouse all this time. For $3.50, I violated my pledge not to buy more cookbooks. Alas, the pea soup recipe isn’t included.
- Does anyone have this recipe?
- If you’ve used this cookbook, are there any of its recipes that you particularly recommend?
TIA
Merci beaucoups! It may very well be, though I had the soup 20 years before that particular cookbook came out. I’ve bookmarked the recipe and will try it.
I don’t have the recipe for you . But wanted to thank you of reminding me of Madeleine Kamman . I always loved her program Madeleine Cooks . I haven’t seen her program on TV for quite some time . She used to be on PBS . I found her shows on You Tube . What a delight . Thanks for mentioning Madeleine Cooks /
I know a local chef who trained under MK; while it was a valuable culinary education, MK was known for being very demanding. Her students and staff were under a lot of pressure.
I have had some tough bosses in the trade . It made me better at what I do .
