EQUIPMENT:

• Dutch oven
• Blender
• Pot

INGREDIENTS:

• Three tbsp. unsalted butter
• Two pieces of garlic (minced)
• 4 ½ cups Asparagus
• 3 ½ cups of chicken broth (reduced sodium)
• One tsp. sea salt
• 1 tsp. pepper powder
• One cup of heavy cream
• Sour cream (optional & garnish)
• Fresh dill (optional & garnish)

INGREDIENT NOTES:

ASPARAGUS:

• Cut the woody ends of asparagus when it becomes white.
• To save waste, boil these ends in water to make an asparagus broth that you can use in your cream of asparagus soup and other soup recipes.

BUTTER:

• I like using grass-fed butter, but any type would work.
• Select unsalted so you may taste and adjust the salt accordingly.

GARLIC:

• If you have fresh garlic, use it; if not, use 1 teaspoon of convenient chopped garlic from a jar.
• If you want more taste, you may also add some chopped onion.

CHICKEN BROTH:

• I suggest preparing the broth of chicken for this soup at home if you have plenty of time.
• I use a store-bought version with less salt if you don’t.

HEAVY CREAM:

• Your soup will be velvety because of the heavy cream!
• You may utilize full-fat coconut milk or coconut cream in lieu of cream if you want to create asparagus soup without cream.
• Low-fat milk, such as hemp or almond milk won’t be rich enough for this soup; therefore I don’t suggest using them.

OPTIONAL:

• Optional garnishes for this creamy asparagus soup include sour cream and fresh dill.
• An alternative might be a sprinkling of parmesan cheese, fresh chives, or other fresh herbs.

SALT AND PEPPER:

• Pepper powder and salt is included in this creamy asparagus soup according to your preference.

INSTRUCTION:

INCLUDE THE GARLIC:

1. Liquefy the butter in a big oven (Dutch) over heat (moderate). Sauté the garlic until it becomes aromatic.

SAUTE:

1. When the asparagus is brilliant green, add it and sauté it.

SIMMER THE HEAT:

1. Season the soup with salt, pepper, and chicken broth.
2. Heat to high and boil the soup.
3. After lowering the heat to low, simmer the asparagus until it becomes delicate and soft.

MIX:

1. Puree the soup to your preferred consistency by pouring the entirety of the pot into a powerful blender or using an immersion blender.

POUR THE CREAM:

1. Return the soup of asparagus to the saucepan. Mix the heavy cream in the soup and cook it well.
2. Your Keto Asparagus Soup is ready!

TIPS:

• Choose slender asparagus stalks and clip them well to prevent stringy soup. You can’t create a smooth texture if you use woody ends or thick stalks. The asparagus will naturally break in the proper spot if you bend it close to the woody end, which is the ideal method to determine where to cut the ends.
• Make sure the asparagus becomes extremely delicate and supple. It won’t integrate smoothly if, after boiling, there is still some sharpness.
• If desired, thicken it with more vegetables. When you blend the homemade cream of asparagus soup thickens spontaneously, without the need for extra thickeners. To thicken the soup even more without significantly changing its flavor, you may incorporate cooked cauliflower or potatoes if you’d like.
