Vegan Creamless Creamy Asparagus Soup Recipes

VEGAN CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP

Steps:

• Coat the bottom of a large pot with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place it over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until it becomes soft and translucent.
• Add the garlic and all but 8 spears of asparagus. Continue to sauté for about 5 minutes more, until the asparagus begins to soften.
• Stir in 4 cups of broth, potato, and cashews.
• Raise the heat and bring the liquid to a boil. Lower the heat and allow it to simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potato and asparagus are very soft.
• Transfer the mixture to a food processor bowl in batches and blend until smooth.
• Return the mixture to the pot. Thin with up to 2 cups of additional broth if desired. Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Reheat if needed.
• Coat the bottom of a medium skillet with the remaining teaspoon of oil and place it over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the reserved asparagus spears and cook just until they become bright green and tender-crisp.
• Ladle the soup into bowls. Drizzle with non-dairy milk, sprinkle with chives, and arrange a few asparagus spears on top of each bowl. Serve.

Steps:

• In a large stockpot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Sauté the onions, garlic and celery until the onions are soft and translucent. Add the potatoes and asparagus and stir well to combine.

Steps:

• Place a large stockpot over medium heat. Sprinkle the bottom with a pinch of sea salt and heat for 1 minute. Add the oil and heat for 30 seconds, being careful not to let it smoke. This will creat a nonstick effect.
• Add the asparagus, celery, and onion and saute for 6-10 minutes, just until celery is soft. Add the stock and bay leaf, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 more minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaf. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Working in batches, pour the soup into a blender. Cover the lid with a towel(the hot liquid may spout out of the blender), blend on high. Add the spinach to the last batch and continue blending until smooth. Pour the soup into a large bowl and stir to incorporate the spinach batch.
• Ladle into bowls and garnish with baby greens(or use chives or beets) and drops of Cashew Cream. Enjoy!
