Asparagus Salad
with

and Lemon Garlic Mayonnaise

(Spargelsalat mit Erdbeeren)

I have been experimenting with asparagus and strawberries together
and have come to love the combination.

This is my favorite salad so far and I like several
different flavored mayonnaise dressings.
in many parts of the culinary world they call them "Aioli".
These are so simple to put together, so I like to recommend them.

Blistered Asparagus Salad

(Blister Spargelsalat)

Marinated and fried in hot oil,
to give the skin a great texture.

This is an interesting Idea to Blister anything on purpose ….much less something we want to eat.
However if I said, charred, or caramelized, or crusted, these are similar.
The coolness of a blistered asparagus is that it makes a nice caramelization
on the skin and crisp texture as opposed to one that may be a bit on the slimy side.

Don't let miso scare you. miso is a seasoning agent in my mind akin to
the Popular Gerrman Maggi seasoning. I like to associate them together in my mind

They have both worked at making seasoning to bring out the flaors in all kinds of dishes.

Asparagus Soup

Spargelsuppe

Asparagus soup is always going to be the next days meal after a nice asparagus dinner.

the bottom stems and peelings make a small amount but absolutely wonderful soup!

With the tough bottom stems and peelings you can make a stock.
I like to add some bay leaf, onion and garlic.

Simmer for an hour or so.

Let the stock cool a bit and then blend it in your food processor. I prefer to use one with a powerful motor
like a Nutribullet or a VItamix blender.

Then I strain it through a fairly fine strainer to get the fiber out.

Now your stock is ready to make asparagus soup.

If you want a thicker soup at a few peeled potatoes.

They make a natural thickening agent plus a nice neutral background flavor.

Asparagus Soup with Strawberry

(Spargelssuppe mit Erdbeeren)

Here I added some baby dumplings so I could spoon some crushed strawberries on them.
It gives the aspagagus soup a nice contrasting flavor.

Asparagus Soup with Miso

I made a simple soup of vegetables and Miso. Miso

Miso paste makes a nice flavored broth. It is not strange tasting, but just a wonderful flavor booster.
Miso is another flavor booster, as you would put Maggi in which is a German flavor booster
