Looks great.

Yum. We had grilled Wagyu strips, artichoke hearts and corn on the cob. First wine in a couple weeks. Yum.

Never had asparagus soup. How did that turn out?

Fantastic. And easy and fast.

Asparagus, garlic, chicken broth, and a bit of heavy cream are the only ingredients. The asparagus softens in 10-15m and then I use a stick blender right in the pot.

Here’s the recipe if anyone wants to try it.

That's pretty much what I do, less the cream. I find it really doesn't need the extra fat to be delicious.

I thought the cream improved the color a lot.

It’s only 1/2c
