ASPARAGUS SOUP

List of Ingredients






2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons flour

1 1/2 cups half-and-half

1 1/2 cups whipping cream

2 cups asparagus, cut in 1/2-inch pieces

1/2 teaspoon white pepper

1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

2 tablespoons brandy

Melt the butter and add the flour. Cook over medium heat for two to three minutes, stirring constantly. Do not brown.

Slowly add the half-and-half and whipping cream, whisking constantly to avoid forming lumps, until mixture is smooth.

Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a strong simmer until the asparagus is tender (10 to 15 minutes).

Puree the soup in a blender until smooth. Serve.
