Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. (1 minute)

02

Step

Add the thinly sliced garlic and chopped green onions to the saucepan. Cook and stir until the garlic is just golden and fragrant, being careful not to burn it. (about 3 minutes)

03

Step

Introduce the trimmed and coarsely chopped asparagus to the pan. Cook and stir with the garlic and green onions until the asparagus is slightly softened, allowing its vibrant green color to deepen. (about 2 minutes)

04

Step

Pour in the vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and allow the soup to simmer until the asparagus is tender and easily pierced with a fork. (about 10 minutes)

05

Step

Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the soup to cool slightly before blending. This step is crucial for safety.

06

Step

Carefully pour the soup into a blender, filling it no more than halfway full. Secure the lid tightly. To prevent splattering, start the blender with a few quick pulses before running it continuously until the soup is completely smooth. Repeat in batches until all the soup is pureed.

07

Step

Transfer the pureed soup back to the saucepan and gently reheat over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

08

Step

Season the soup with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed to enhance the flavors.

For an extra creamy texture, consider adding a swirl of coconut milk or cashew cream just before serving.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice can brighten the flavors of the soup and add a touch of acidity.
Garnish with a sprinkle of toasted pine nuts or a few fresh asparagus tips for added visual appeal and textural contrast.
