Asparagus Soup Recipe - Cooking Index
2 lbs | 908g / 32oz | Asparagus |
2 lbs | 908g / 32oz | Potatoes (large) |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Dill |
1/4 cup | 15g / 0.5oz | Unbleached flour |
1 cup | 237ml | Rice milk |
1 pinch | Salt to taste |
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.
