Asparagus Broth

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.

   Tip: Use a blender or immersion blender to puree the soup for a smooth texture.

2. 2

   Add the chicken broth, white wine, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

   Tip: Add the asparagus to the pot and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until tender.

3. 3

   Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches, then return it to the pot.

   Tip: Be careful when handling the hot soup.

4. 4

   Stir in the chopped parsley and serve the Asparagus Broth hot.

   Tip: Serve with a swirl of cream or crusty bread, if desired.
