For this simple first dish, the time it takes to be done does not exceed twenty minutes. Besides, there is the relevant expression: "Faster than to cook asparagus". Yet, though fast, it's delicious. It escapes from our usual Kitchen Soups and is splendidly fragrant.
Each ingredient is distinguished by its flavor and taste. When the first spoon arrives in our mouth and the palate begins to detect the aromas, it will record the soft and fine taste of asparagus (favorite vegetable), the intensity of the roasted garlic, the unique aroma of wild fennel, the unparalleled flavor of Parmesan and the set ends up being an incredible «dance» of tasteful combination.
Surely it surprises us that this little white soup can have such an exciting flavor.
It is accompanied by a glass of rosé wine.
Yours!
