Asparagus Soup

Type: Vegetables
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

2 lbs 908g / 32ozAsparagus
2 lbs 908g / 32ozPotatoes (large)
2 tablespoons 30mlDill
1/4 cup 15g / 0.5ozUnbleached flour
1 cup 237mlRice milk
1 pinch  Salt to taste

Recipe Instructions

Cut potatoes into small pieces. In an approximately 3 qt. saucepan, boil potatoes until extremely tender. While this is happening, wash asparagus.

Remove woody ends. Cut into 1" sections, setting aside tips. Add non-tip sections to potato pot and cook until asparagus has gone beyond bright green to olive green (but not brown :)). Add dill. Asparagus should be soft enough to mash along with potatoes, in the cooking water. Don't throw out any of the cooking water.

lightly brown flour in a small saucepan and allow to cool somewhat before adding rice milk. Add liquid gradually to make a smooth pseudo-roux and add the roux to the soup. Add the asparagus tips and continue cooking the soup just until they are tender and bright green. Salt to taste.
