Asparagus Soup with Quail Eggs and Caviar - serves 6
2 lb fresh green asparagus, trimmed, and cut into 2" pieces
8 cup water
4 tbsp butter
1 cup minced yellow onions
1 cup minced leeks, white part only
Salt and freshly-ground white pepper to taste
1 tbsp chopped garlic
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup Creme fraiche
6 hard-boiled quail eggs, halved
2 oz caviar
Chopped chives
Add the water to a saucepan and season with salt. Bring the liquid to a boil.
Add the asparagus and cook for 3 minutes. Remove and drain, reserving the water
and asparagus. In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Add the onions and leeks.
Season with salt and pepper. Saute until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes. Stir
in the garlic and flour.
Continue to cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the cooked asparagus and reserved
liquid. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a simmer and cook for
25 minutes, or until the asparagus are very tender. Using a hand-held blender,
puree the soup until smooth.
Remove and strain, discard any leftover fibers. Add the liquid back to the
saucepan and whisk in the cream. Reseason with salt and pepper. Remove from the
heat and chill the soup completely. Garnish each soup with a drizzle of creme
fraiche, 2 quail egg halves, caviar and chives.
