ASPARAGUS POTATO SOUP



Asparagus Potato Soup image

I was looking for a new way to eat asparagus and found this recipe in The Amish Cook at Home. I'm amazed at how simple yet delicious many of their recipes are (they look like you really worked hard). The potato thickens the soup, and it's a light color like a cream sauce. I left the skins on my potatoes and used probably a cup of onion, but otherwise I followed the recipe as listed. Make sure you whisk the milk and flour together (I added the flour slowly to the milk) or you'll end up with flour clumps. The asparagus stays nice and crisp. A variation suggested by the author is to sprinkle crumbled bacon on top as a garnish (now wouldn't that be heavenly).

Cream of Asparagus Soup image

No need to toss out the tough ends of asparagus-use them to make a quick stock for an extra shot of flavor in this cream of asparaagus soup.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 bunches asparagus (about 2 pounds), trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces, trimmings and 20 tips reserved
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 large shallot, sliced crosswise, plus 1/2 large shallot
1/2 large clove garlic, finely chopped, plus 1/2 large clove garlic
1 medium Yukon gold or Russet potato (about 8 ounces), peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan; season with 2 teaspoons salt. Add asparagus tips and blanch until bright green and just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath with a slotted spoon; reserve for topping. Add trimmings, 1/2 shallot and 1/2 clove garlic to the same pot and return to a boil; reduce heat and simmer the asparagus stock 20 to 25 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  • In another saucepan, heat olive oil over medium. Add sliced shallot and chopped garlic and cook until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. 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.

Tips:

  • For a creamy soup, blend a portion of the soup until smooth and then stir it back into the pot.
  • Add some chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or dill, to the soup just before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkling of grated Parmesan cheese, or a side of crusty bread for dipping.
  • If you don't have asparagus on hand, you can substitute another green vegetable, such as broccoli or green beans.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe instructions and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.

Conclusion:

Potato asparagus soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover potatoes and asparagus. With its creamy texture and fresh asparagus flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
