Ingredients for Asparagus Parmesan Soup

  • 1 pound asparagus spears
  • Cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt
  • Pepper

How to Make Asparagus Parmesan Soup

  1. Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus spears and roughly chop.
  2. In a blender, combine the asparagus, chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender a few times.
  4. Pour the blended soup into a medium saucepan.
  5. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through (about 2-3 minutes). Do not boil.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or Parmesan cheese to your liking.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
