An asparagus classic! My version may not be the most healthy, but it is super delicious!
In any case, every family member, friend and/or acquaintance asks for the recipe once they have tasted this soup. So I guess you can use it too 🙂
You can, of course, also simplify them and let the soy butter out. Is also nice, but just a little less ‘boom’ 😉
Enjoy the soup!

- Cut the woody end of the asparagus and throw it away. Thoroughly peel the asparagus with a peeler.

- Bring the pieces of asparagus with half of the vegetable stock to the boil. Put the lid on the pot and boil for about 10 minutes.

- Melt the soy butter into another pot on a low fire. Add the flour and stir the garment until the 'roux' begins to foam.
- Slowly add the other half of the broth and keep stirring in the meantime. Make sure there are no clots left.
- Once all the broth has been added, bring the mixture back to the boil. Lower the fire immediately and simmer for 2-3 more minutes.

- Season to taste with pepper and sea salt.
- For the garnish you can spread some grated lemon peel over the soup if desired. Pretty fresh!
