5 minutes. Do not allow the shallots and garlic to brown.
While shallots are cooking, cut the asparagus into
3
⁄4-inch pieces.
When shallots are soft, add asparagus, reserving the tips for garnish,
and potato to saucepan and cook for about 6 minutes longer, until
asparagus is bright in color. Add wine. Raise the heat to bring the wine
to a boil. Reduce the wine until a scant tablespoon remains. Add
chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low. Simmer for
about 20 minutes until the vegetables are soft. Insert the hand blender
into the saucepan, making sure the protective guard is submerged.
Blend on Low, using a gentle up-and-down motion until ingredients are
well combined, about 30 to 45 seconds. Add salt, pepper and basil. Stir
in cream if using.
While soup is cooking, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the
asparagus tips and until just tender and bright green. Drain and
immediately plunge into an ice water bath to stop cooking. Drain and
dry completely.
Serve soup hot, garnished with reserved asparagus tips.

Yukon Gold Potato and
Roasted Garlic Soup
A hearty soup that can also be served chilled like vichyssoise.
Makes eight cups (8 servings)
1 ounce garlic cloves (8-12 cloves), peeled
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1
⁄2 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium onion (5 ounces), peeled, cut into
1
⁄2-inch pieces
1 carrot (2 ounces), peeled, cut into
1
⁄2-inch pieces
1 rib celery (2 ounces), peeled, cut into
1
⁄2-inch pieces
3
1
⁄2 cups fat free, low-sodium chicken or vegetable stock
2 cups water
2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, cut into
1
⁄2-inch slices
1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
1
⁄2 cup evaporated fat free milk or half-and-half
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1
⁄2 teaspoon ground white pepper
Preheat oven to 375°F. Place cloves of garlic in the center of a 12-inch
square of foil, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and toss to coat.
Wrap the foil around the garlic and fold or crimp to seal. Roast until garlic
is tender, about 1 hour. Cool slightly before using. (Garlic may be roasted
ahead, and will keep in a resealable container for 5 days in the refrigerator.)
