New Cream Of Asparagus Soup - For The Dear Of Spring

It’s non quite boundary yet, but this immature man’s fancy has already turned to love. No, non that kind; I’m talking almost my honey for this ultra-easy, together with gorgeously colored, cream of asparagus soup recipe. For me, asparagus is i of those rare vegetables that shines brightest when enjoyed inwards soup form.


Don’t teach me wrong, I honey the fresh spears, together with convey posted many recipes featuring them, but for pure asparagus goodness, you lot only can’t trounce a perfectly made bowl of soup. There are no tricks or hush-hush techniques here; only brand certain your onions are fully cooked earlier adding the asparagus, together with other than non over-cooking it, there’s non a lot that tin become wrong. 

Testing the vegetable’s doneness past times pressing them against the side of the pot should eliminate whatever guesswork, but if unsure, err on the side of slightly nether vs. slightly over cooked. The other determination you’ll convey to brand is whether to strain or not. I recommend it, but totally empathize if you lot don’t. The soup is bang-up every bit is, but straining out the woodier fibers does plough over it a finer, to a greater extent than velvety texture.

Of course, the float of Parmesan together with lemon cream on hap is optional also, but pretend it isn’t. It adds a bang-up visual element, together with adds a footling extra richness to the soup’s lean, dark-green goodness. I promise you lot autumn inwards honey amongst this soup soon. Enjoy!
