That is why we have not only the basic recipe of fine asparagus soup for you but also many exciting recipes. In addition to the classic asparagus cream soup, there are much more different soup creations. Click for inspiration through our recipe section. In China, there are about 31 species, of which 15 are only present there. About 15 species are found in Europe.
The basis for most asparagus supplements is the asparagus broth, which is not spilled after cooking but is reused. Alternatively, you can also use the asparagus skin after washing it thoroughly. Simply boil and add butter and a splash of lemon. Then simmer for at least 30 minutes. It does not matter if you use white or green asparagus. Both are the basis for the asparagus broth.
In the asparagus season, we cannot get enough of the white gold and enjoy its recipe in all variations. Earlier the asparagus soup was made with the ones that the country men took deftly to home with bundles of wheat. Today by the type of life that we have, we have to use the green asparagus that we find in the supermarkets. They do not have the flavor or the texture of the field ones but they are also good to make a soup.
It is a very simple dish that allows us to improvise easily with what we have in the pantry. This is a classic recipe. You will have heard me speak of it many times because during spring we eat it a lot. The recipe belongs to my great-grandmother, and in those days it was made with wild asparagus that grew wild in her garden.
