VEGAN LEMON ASPARAGUS SOUP
I have always been a fan of the ubiquitous potato and leek soup. I thought I would try expanding on that idea a little, and adding in some greens. This soup is just delicious. When I think about grilling asparagus, I always serve it with a generous squeeze of lemon juice. Why should this soup be any different? I started making this soup without all the lemon, and found that it just didn't have that extra pop. The lemon juice turned this soup from "so-so" to sublime. Don't be afraid to make this soup really, really lemony. "She is a friendly tart". You won't be sorry. YUMMO!

Steps:
- Sautee the leeks in oil until soft and translucent.
- Add the potatoes and the stock, and simmer until the potato is tender, and cooked through.
- Add in the asparagus, and just blanch for only a couple of minutes until just tender. Be careful not to over cook them.
- We want to preserve the vibrant green colour, and nutritional value. Allow the soup to cool slightly.
- Then blend thoroughly, until smooth and creamy, Return to the stove, and reheat.
- Season with Celtic sea salt, and then pour in the fresh lemon juice gradually - tasting periodically until you achieve your perfect blend.
- The soup is best if it is really lemony. It has a tangy zing and tastes alive and really heightens the natural flavour of the asparagus.
- Season with nutmeg and serve with an extra lemon wedge. YUM!

- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 8 minutes. Do not brown; reduce the heat if necessary.
- In the meantime, cut the tips off of one bunch of the asparagus and set aside (you'll use those for a garnish). Cut the remaining spears and the other bunch of asparagus into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add the chopped asparagus to the pot (minus the reserved tips), along with the chicken broth, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Bring to a boil, then cover and turn the heat down to low. Simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are very tender.
- Meanwhile, bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the reserved asparagus tips for a few minutes, or until tender-crisp. Drain the tips and then place them in a bowl of ice water to "shock" them -- this stops the cooking process and preserves their bright green color. Once the tips are cool, drain them and set aside.
