CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP
Steps:
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic, and saute 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add asparagus and saute another 4 minutes. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer and cook for 30 minutes, until asparagus is very tender. *Carefully transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Return to saucepan, stir in sour cream and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to serving bowls. Dust with paprika and serve.
- *When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.

Steps:
- 1. Remove about one-inch bottom of stem then chop the asparagus. Rinse in a colander and allow to drain. Set aside.
- 2. Heat butter and olive oil in heavy pan over medium-high temperature. Add chopped onion and stir for one or two minutes. Reduce heat to medium, stirring for about three-minutes. Add chopped mushroom*, garlic, salt and pepper, continuing to stir for a few more minutes until onion is tender and translucent (five or six minutes total). [*NOTE: I prefer shitake mushrooms because they have a nice, beefy consistency. However, use your favorite.]
- 3. Add the asparagus, lemon juice and one-cup of the chicken stock to the pot. Reduce heat to medium-low setting. Cover pot and continue cooking about 15-minutes until asparagus is tender.
- 4. Add remainder of chicken stock and one-half cup of the heavy cream to the pot. Taste test to determine if you want to add more salt or pepper.
- 5. Insert immersion blender into mixture and mix until all ingredients are creamy-smooth texture. ADD remainder of heavy cream and stir.
- 6. Serve hot. OPTIONAL: Garnish with one or more of the following: Dash of dill weed, dash of basil, teaspoon of sour cream, drizzle of balsamic glaze.
