Recipe FAQs
Some recipes are more complicated than others, but I’ve simplified this version so it’s made in under an hour!
Asparagus soup originated in France but it has taken on a life of its own since it came to be.
Once your soup cools, store it in airtight containers in the fridge. It’ll keep for about 4-5 days. Reheat it in the microwave or on the stovetop until it’s warmed through. You can also freeze your soup, just thaw it in the fridge overnight, and then reheat it when you’re ready to enjoy.

I’ve had asparagus soup only once in my life before at an old neighbor’s. This brought back all the memories. Thank you
Been wanting some asparagus chowder awhile, but I also wanted carrots, potatoes, etc. Found this recipe and prepped my veggies, then started putting together. Only thing I changed was using corn instead of green peas. This was by far one of the best chowders I’ve had in a LONG time, and I love not blending everything up but being able to get bites of all those fresh veggies. Thanks so much for a killer recipe.
Yes, love the chunky asparagus too. Great time of the year to make it. Thank you for your feedback.
