Pin Recipe Instructions
- Peel the asparagus and cut into pieces two to three centimeters long. Bring the vegetable stock to the boil and let the asparagus peels steep for 25 minutes over a low heat. Pour the stock through a sieve into a saucepan, squeeze out the asparagus peels with a ladle, then throw them away.
- Add the asparagus pieces with a strip of lemon zest to the stock and cook over a medium heat for 12 minutes. Remove 1/4 of the asparagus pieces from the stock and set aside. Remove lemon strips and puree the soup. Put the cream in the saucepan until just before the boil. Season with salt, pepper, nutmeg and a little lemon juice. Add the cold butter and froth the soup with the hand blender. Put the asparagus pieces that were set aside back into the soup, heat them up briefly and then serve.
About Editorial Staff
The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
