• Serve either warm or chilled, garnished with the reserved asparagus tips.
• This soup can also be frozen.
• Chef's Note: If you have spare spears or left over asparagus, use them to make my Asparagus Sauce, which can be served with pasta, salmon, or chicken. It too is great hot or cold and can be frozen.
