Use Fresh Vegetables: Fresh asparagus and corn are essential for this soup. Look for asparagus that is bright green and firm, and corn that is plump and sweet. Don't Overcook the Vegetables: Asparagus and corn should be cooked just until tender. Overcooking will make them mushy. Use a Good Quality Chicken Broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. If you have time, make your own chicken broth. Don't Skimp on the Cheese: The cheese adds a rich and creamy flavor to the soup. Use a good quality cheddar cheese that melts well. Serve with a Side of Bread or Salad: This soup is hearty enough to be a meal on its own, but it's also great served with a side of bread or salad.
