Asparagus Soup Recipe

4 bunches asparagus

1 small onion

1 pint milk

1/2 pint cream

1 1/2 tablespoon sugar

1 large tablespoon butter

1 1/2 tablespoon flour

pepper to season



Wash and clean asparagus, put in saucepan with just enough water to

cover, boil until little points are soft.



Cut these off and lay aside. Fry onion in the butter and put in saucepan

with the asparagus. Cook until very soft mashing occasionally so as to

extract all juice from the asparagus.



When thoroughly cooked put through sieve. Now add salt, sugar and flour

blended.



Stir constantly and add milk and cream, and serve at once. (Do not place

again on stove as it might curdle. Croutons may be served with this).
