Easy Recipe  Cream of Asparagus Soup   Oven Temp. ~ º Cooking Time ~ 20 minutes Pan size ~ Stock pot Servings ~  4   GLENDA'S Helpful Kitchen Hints; ~~~~~~~~~~ Simple variation to this great asparagus soup is to add 1 cup Velveeta cheese, which makes an Easy Cheesy Asparagus Soup Recipe.   Cream brings richness to this asparagus soup. Luscious and thick, it goes together fast. Easy Recipe Cream of Asparagus Soup 2 pound fresh green asparagus 1 tablespoon grated onion 4 cups chicken stock 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 1 cup evaporated milk or fat free evaporated milk 1 cup half & half cream 1 large bay leaf pinch of basil pinch of pepper salt or to taste croutons or crackers Wash and drain asparagus. Break off the bottom 1 1/2 inches from each spire. Cut off the tips 1 1/2 inches from the top. In a large soup pot bring the chicken stock to a boil, add the bay leaf, basil, salt & pepper.  Cook the asparagus tips in the boiling stock until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain well, and set aside. Cook the remaining stalks at a boil in the chicken stock until very soft, about 15 minutes. Put the cooked asparagus in a blender. Blend on medium speed until its a smooth puree. Return puree to the pot. In a separate saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour and cook over moderately high heat until lightly browned. Add about 1 cup of the hot soup. Cook until smooth. Add this to the remaining stock. Stir to blend. Add the milk or cream and salt, and heat through. Garnish with reserved asparagus tips and cream, if desired. Yield: 4 servings, easily doubled for a crowd.
