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


Don’t larn me wrong, I dearest the fresh spears, together with convey posted many recipes featuring them, but for pure asparagus goodness, you lot but can’t shell a perfectly made bowl of soup.
