How to make
Peel the white asparagus and cut off the ends, but don't throw them away. Also peel the green asparagus. Prepare water on the stove, which we flavor with butter, salt, sugar and citrus juices.
After the water boils, blanch the white asparagus for 13 minutes.
Then immediately put them in ice water to stop the cooking.
In the same water, boil the white asparagus peels for 20 minutes. Keep two raw white asparagus and two green ones.
With the peeler, cut thin strips from both asparagus. After the skins are boiled, remove them and in the same water, blanch the strips for 3 minutes.
Then add the cream, a few boiled white asparagus to the water and blend with the mixer.
Season with salt and black pepper and cook the cream soup for 20 minutes.
Present it by placing the blanched strips in a bowl and pouring the cooked asparagus soup on top.
Finish off with drops of olive oil and basil leaves.
The white asparagus cream soup is very delicate and delicious.
