This is such a nice flavoured soup!! Next time I will definitely be making double so I can freeze it. Had to add a little cornflower to thicken but tastes fantastic! Great recipe!

Thanx for the tips GennyMac. I too have sodium concerns

I save the hard fibrous ends from my asparagus and freeze them. When I make this I put them into a pot of 2 cups salted water, simmer until they are cooked through, about 20 - 30 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce by half. I then use my blender to puree this and strain out all the fibers. That is the stock I begin with rather than using store bought because of sodium concerns. The flavor is much brighter and deep. I also add a bit of tarragon to the sauteed veggies before the final blending. No carbs, no sodium, and a great flavor enhancement.

Little salty, my error. I won’t add salt as I felt the stock was salty enough. Personal preference. The recipe is great. Tasty, easy and I really enjoyed it.

There are different kinds of heavy creams, ones with 3 carbs per 100g and ones with 6 carbs/100g. I wonder what kind is used in this receipe.

Delish! A great way to use up the large pkg of Costco asparagus before it spoils. Husband and I loved this. We used chicken broth and dehydrated onion. Easy!

Thank you :)

I use quite a bit more asparagus, chicken stock instead of vegetable, shallot (cause I dont usually have onion) and a few ounce of cream cheese. Blended up in my Vitamix, it comes out amazing!

Thanks for the cream cheese suggestion, the soup is kind of thin, maybe I added too much broth? The cream cheese will thicken it a little.
