CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP
This soup is wonderful served hot or cold. Half & half or milk may be substituted for the cream if fat content is a concern, although it won't taste quite as good.

CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP
Steps:
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic, and saute 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add asparagus and saute another 4 minutes. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer and cook for 30 minutes, until asparagus is very tender. *Carefully transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Return to saucepan, stir in sour cream and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to serving bowls. Dust with paprika and serve.
- *When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.
ASPARAGUS SOUP
Velvety asparagus soup, lovely green color, great with crunchy rolls. My friend gave me this recipe, it originally used chicken broth. When my daughter became vegetarian, I modified it with vegetable broth instead! It also doubles easily. This soup will tempt even asparagus haters!

Steps:
- Get the woody parts off the bottom of your asparagus, and steam them with the onion (peeled and quartered) over 2.5 cups of boiling water. Steam for about 6 minutes (far more than you might if serving them normally "al dente" -- you want them soft.
- Place half of steamed asparagus, half the onion, half the coconut milk and half the salt and pepper (fresh ground sea salt and fresh cracked pepper are delicious, but "regular s&p" will do) into the blender -- don't blend yet.
- Add 2 bouillon cubes to the water in which you steamed the asparagus/onion boil until the bouillon cubes are dissolved, and add 1/2 cup of the bouillon to your blender, and reserve another 1/2 cup and place the rest of the bouillon in a soup pot.
- Blend it on high -- you want a puree.
- Once blended, return the blended mixture to the bouillon in the soup pot through a strainer (this may take a while, feel free to encourage the process with a spatula).
- Repeat with the rest of the asparagus, onion, coconut milk, salt, pepper and bouillon.
- Once all ingredients are strained through into the soup, reduce heat to low, place the rosemary into a single-serving tea strainer/infuser and let the rosemary infuse into the soup for 45 minutes.
- Stir and serve.

Stir in potato and enough of the asparagus stock to cover the vegetables (about 1 cup), and simmer until the potato is tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Strain remaining asparagus stock directly into saucepan with the potatoes. Add remaining asparagus and cook until tender and bright green, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Puree in a blender until completely smooth; remove 1 cup and reserve. Slowly stir in cream, and season to taste with salt and pepper; thin with reserved liquid as needed. Serve hot or chilled, topped with asparagus tips and a drizzle of oil.
