What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Asparagus soup is a springtime soup made with asparagus, broth or water, cream, and a thickener. The result is a pale green soup with a delicate flavor and velvety texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Why this recipe works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We use a little short-grain white rice to thicken the soup rather than flour or cornstarch. It gives the soup a not-too-thick, velvety texture<\/strong> without the heaviness of flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It only needs about 30 minutes to cook. So it's a quick and easy<\/strong> spring vegetable recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The soup tastes delicious<\/strong> and is perfect for those slightly chilly spring afternoons. It's warming with a delicate asparagus flavor<\/strong> touched by notes of cream, butter, and leeks.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
