Instructions

1. After cleaning and removing the butts from the asparagus (I don't know the technical term) cut it down into roughly 1/2 to 1 inch pieces.
2. Blanch the asparagus in boiling water.  After 2-3 minutes remove the asparagus from the boiling water and immediately place it into an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
3. Remove the asparagus from the ice water and place it into a food processor, or a small sauce pan if you're use a hand blender like I am.
4. Add all the remaining ingredients to the asparagus and blend together.  If you're using a hand blender like myself I find it blends best if you add a bit of asparagus to the water and remaining ingredients and blend it until it's smooth. Continuing to add asparagus little by little until you have blended it all to am smooth consistency.
5. Pour the soup into a small sauce pan and heat the soup over low heat for 5 minutes.  Season with Salt & pepper to taste.
