CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP with PANCETTA - Food Photo Shoot
I have been accused many times of only making desserts. Though I do indeed make a lot of desserts, I also like to put out some more, let us say, more balanced dishes.
Well, cream of asparagus soup isn't going to peg anybody's health meter, but it is going to satisfy those taste buds for sure.
Asparagus is low in Saturated Fat. It is also low in Cholesterol as well as Sodium. Asparagus is a good source of Pantothenic Acid, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc and Selenium, along with that, a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Protein, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), Vitamin K, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Iron, Phosphorus, Potassium, Copper and Manganese. - SOURCE

ALL CONTENT IS MINE AND ORIGINAL! All of these food photos were taken with my Nikon D5300 and my favorite Lens, the Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G. You can find out more in my INTRO POST.
So nice to see asparagus featured here! Your soup looks great, especially with the asparagus spears on the top. I've been enjoying so much fresh-picked asparagus this spring. I like grilling the spears and as much of the stalk that is tender. The rest I save in the freezer for making asparagus soup. It's so great! I'm glad you all got to enjoy it! I like your main course and side dish posts. They are creative and so pretty!
Always such kind words. So, you're having a nice asparagus harvest, that is nice, especially since you can freeze a lot for later. I have never tried grilling, I must add that to my list. Thanks so much for the inspiration @haphazard-hstead
I'll make a post on asparagus sometime. Grilling really brings out the sweetness of the asparagus. I use a grill pan most of the time. It makes grilling really easy.
I can't wait to see it. Make sure you leave me a comment telling me the post is up.
I'll do that! I'm sure you could make a wonderful grilled asparagus meal and photoshoot! I always just happy to have something to eat, lol! Hope your wrists are doing better.
I love asparagus, but have never learned how to cook it well! I will totally try this recipe! Thanks!
