Asparagus Cauliflower Soup
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
  • cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons nasturtium petals, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons diced asparagus tips, or more to taste
Instructions
1
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large cooking vessel over an intermediate temperature. Sauté minced garlic in the hot oil until it emits a pleasant aroma, approximately 1 minute. Combine chicken broth, cauliflower florets, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper into the garlic mixture. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, decrease heat to a low-medium temperature, and cook until the cauliflower is tender and easily pierced with a fork, roughly 15 minutes.
2
Introduce 2 pounds of fresh asparagus into the cauliflower mixture and boost heat to a high level. Cook until the asparagus is tender but retains some of its vibrant green color, approximately 5 to 6 minutes.
3
Mash the soup with a handheld blender until it reaches a smooth consistency; add additional salt and black pepper to taste. Serve the soup in bowls and adorn with edible flowers or sprinkle diced asparagus tips on top.
