Ingredient Checklist
Coarse salt
1 1/3 cups shelled fresh peas
1 cup loosely packed watercress (1 ounce)

Cook's Notes
You can make this sauce with thawed frozen peas instead of fresh, in which case they don’t need to be blanched. The sauce can be made up to one day ahead and refrigerated in an airtight container. Reheat over medium-low heat, adding water to thin, if necessary.

Ingredients
- Coarse salt
- 1 1/3 cups shelled fresh peas
- 1 cup loosely packed watercress (1 ounce)
- 4 teaspoons cold unsalted butter
Directions
Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil; add salt. Blanch peas and watercress until bright green, about 45 seconds. Immediately transfer with a slotted spoon to ice-water bath to stop the cooking.
Drain peas and watercress, then puree in a blender until smooth, adding 4 to 5 tablespoons water to thin (mixture should be just thick enough to coat the back of a spoon). Pass puree through a fine sieve into a small saucepan. Place over low heat, and whisk in butter, 1 teaspoon at a time; whisk until emulsified. Season sauce with salt.
