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.

This recipe is originally from Williams- Sonoma. The original recipe calls for onion, but when I made it I used shallots. I didnt trust the onion not taking over the delicate flavor of the asparagus.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan over medium heat melt butter.
- Add the shallots and celery and saute for 3-4 minutes-do not brown.
- Add the stock, the cut asparagus minus 18 tips, potatoes and basil.
- Raise the heat to medium high and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
- In small batches puree soup in a food mill, blender or food processor.
- If using a blender or processor force puree through a strainer with a wooden spoon-this removes any asparagus fibers.
- Return puree to the pan, stir in cream and season with a bit of salt and pepper.
- Stir well, simmering for 3 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Into a pan of salted, boiling water cook asparagus tips for 2 minutes.
- Drain.
- Ladle soup into bowls and crown each bowl with 3 asparagus tips each.
- Serve hot or chill and serve cold, again adjusting seasonings.
- TIP-when serving creamed soups they are never boiled once the cream is added, so heat the serving bowls with very hot water, pour out, quickly dry and ladle in the soup.
