Time 56m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ⅔ pounds white asparagus
¼ cup butter, divided
1 pinch white sugar
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 shallots, chopped
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
½ cup dry white wine
1 (4 ounce) package Cambozola cheese, cubed
4 sprigs chervil, leaves stripped, divided
5 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Peel asparagus spears with a vegetable peeler from top to bottom, starting below the tips. Trim off any woody ends and chop asparagus spears, leaving the tips intact.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add asparagus pieces, 1 tablespoon butter, sugar, and salt. Reduce heat; simmer until asparagus is tender and easily pierced with a knife, 15 to 25 minutes. Drain, reserving 2 cups cooking liquid.
  • Melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter in the pot. Cook shallots, stirring often, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour until shallots are evenly coated. Whisk in reserved cooking liquid and white wine until soup is thick and smooth, about 5 minutes. Stir in Cambozola cheese until melted, about 1 minute.
  • Stir asparagus pieces, except for the tips, into the sauce. Add all but 2 teaspoons chervil leaves. Puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Beat heavy cream in a bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Stir cream into the soup. Garnish soup with reserved asparagus tips and 2 teaspoon chervil leaves.

This soup is a bit too rich for my taste, but it's still very good.

I was so excited to try this soup, but I was disappointed. The soup was bland and the blue cheese was overpowering.

This soup was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I think next time I will use less cream or milk.

This soup was absolutely delicious! I used fresh asparagus from my garden and it really made a difference. The soup was creamy and flavorful, and the blue cheese added a nice tangy kick. I will definitely be making this soup again soon.
