Directions
Cream of Asparagus Soup,This soup is wonderful served hot or cold. Half & half or milk may be substituted for the cream if fat content is a concern, although it won’t taste quite as good.,Excellent taste and texture! I made a double recipe using 2% milk, and I added 2/3 cup light sour cream (as suggested by one of the reviewers). I sauted the celery with the onion. I thought I would have a ton left over, because a double recipe made a lot, but my husband and I ate half of it in one sitting. There’s just enough left over for one more meal. Thank you for the great recipe!,I loved this soup. Its easy to make and the ingredients meld together for a wonderful delicate taste. I did not have any celery but it did not seem to matter. Thanks for a great recipe.
