Steps:
- Goat cheese: Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Using a fork, in a small bowl, combine the goat cheese and basil until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Soup: In a Dutch oven or large saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring constantly until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the broth, asparagus and basil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the asparagus is tender, about 15 minutes. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep the soup warm over low heat.
- To serve: Ladle the soup into shallow bowls and garnish with the herbed goat cheese.
- Cook's Note: The soup can also be pureed by ladling, in batches, into a food processor or blender and blended until smooth.
CREAMY ASPARAGUS CHOWDER
Although this soup is best when made with fresh asparagus, you can use frozen or canned. I like to blanch and freeze asparagus in portions just right for this recipe so I can make our favorite chowder all year. —Shirley Beachum, Shelby, Michigan

- Snap the tough ends off the asparagus about 1-inch from the root end. Put these ends into a pot with water, reserved scallion greens, bouquet garni, and ½ teaspoon salt, bring to a boil, and then simmer while you prepare everything else. If you’re not ready to use the stock after 25 minutes, strain it and set aside.
- While the stock is cooking, cut off the flowered tips of the asparagus cover them with cold water, and set aside to soak, agitating the water occasionally to get rid of any sand. Peel the remaining middles of the asparagus and chop them into ½-inch chunks.
- Melt the butter in a soup pot. Add the chopped scallions, asparagus middles, and potato. Stir in remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and cook over medium-high heat for several minutes, just until the butter begins to brown a bit. Pour the hot stock through a strainer right into the pot if you haven’t strained it already, then simmer for 8 minutes. Puree in small batches until smooth. Strain the pureed soup into a clean pot. Press the soup and any chunky bits through the strainer. Taste for salt and add a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with a little white pepper and heat through.
- Simmer the asparagus tips in a little salted water until tender, about 4 minutes, then drain. Add them to the soup just before serving, and top with the herb garnish.
