Chilled Asparagus Soup with Goat Cheese image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     appetizer

Time 3h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 ribs celery, diced
3 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
Kosher salt
2 bunches asparagus, stems trimmed
2 Idaho potatoes, peeled and diced
2 quarts chicken or vegetable stock
1 (4-ounce) log goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Coat a large saucepan with olive oil. Add the onion, celery and garlic and bring to a medium heat. Season with salt and sweat until the vegetables are very soft and aromatic, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the tips from the asparagus and reserve. Cut the stalks of the asparagus into 1-inch lengths and add them to the pot. Sweat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the potatoes and the stock. Taste for seasoning and add salt, if needed (it will). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • On a separate burner, bring a small pot of well salted water to a boil over high heat. Have a small bowl of well salted ice water on standby. Cook the asparagus tips in the boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove them from the boiling water and plunge them immediately into the ice water. When the tips are cool, remove them from the water, pat dry and reserve.
  • In a blender or with an immersion blender, puree the asparagus stock mixture. Strain through a mesh strainer, if desired. Taste and adjust the seasonings, if needed. Chill.
  • Garnish with the reserved asparagus tips and crumbled goat cheese. Springtime delicious!

1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
1/4 cup minced shallots
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for brushing
2 bunches (2 pounds) green asparagus (not pencil), ends trimmed to 6 inches
8 ounces fresh goat cheese, softened
8 (1/2-inch thick) slices good quality bread, such as pain de mie, pullman or sourdough, crusts trimmed

Steps:

  • Make vinaigrette:
  • Put dried mushrooms in a heatproof bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let stand 20 minutes. Pour mushrooms with liquid through a paper towel-lined sieve into a small saucepan. Transfer mushrooms to a cutting board and finely chop. Add vinegar, shallots, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and half of mushrooms to saucepan and boil mixture until it is reduced to 2/3 cup, about 10 minutes.

  • Halve asparagus crosswise.
  • Arrange bread slices on a large baking sheet. Brush with some olive oil and bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Spread goat cheese mixture generously on toasts.
  • To serve, place a toast in the center of a salad plate and arrange 4 or 5 stem ends of asparagus on each. Top stems with asparagus tips, arranging them perpendicular to stems. Drizzle asparagus and surrounding plate with vinaigrette.

CREAMY GINGER-ASPARAGUS SOUP



Creamy Ginger-Asparagus Soup image

Creamy is front and center in the recipe title and it is certainly earned, but this silky vegan soup takes an alternative route from the usual dairy-based add-ins to get there. The secret ingredients that create the creamy texture are probably already in your pantry: starchy russet potatoes and heart-healthy olive oil. Aromatics like cilantro, shallot, and ginger are blended in to punch up the flavor; and while you won't be able to taste it, baby spinach gives the soup its vibrant green color.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1 shallot, chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 russet potato, peeled and chopped (1 1/2 cups)
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds asparagus, ends trimmed, stalks chopped (3 cups)
1 cup packed cilantro leaves (from about 1 large bunch)
2 cups packed baby spinach
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add shallot and ginger and cook until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add potato and 4 cups water. Season with salt and pepper and simmer until potatoes are just tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Add asparagus and continue to simmer until vegetables are tender, 8 to 10 minutes more. Reserve one cup liquid from pot and transfer the rest of the mixture to a blender; let cool slightly.
  • Add cilantro and spinach to blender and purée until smooth, adding reserved broth as needed for desired consistency. Return soup to pot and stir in remaining 1/4 cup oil. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm or chilled, with a drizzle of oil, more pepper, and lemon wedges on the side.
