- 1 Pound Thick Green Asparagus (Woody Ends Removed; Sliced Thin)
- 4 Ounces Unsalted Butter
- 4 Ounces Flour
- 8 Cups Chicken Stock
- 2 Teaspoon Freshly Grated Nutmeg
- 2 Cups Spring Peas (Sliced Thin)
- 3 Cups Ramps (Bulbs and Leaves Sliced Thin)
- 1 Cup Spring Onions (Sliced Thin)
- 2 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Tarragon (Garnish)
- Olive Oil
- 1 Lemon (Juice)
- Kosher Salt
- Black Pepper
Michael Symon: The Chew Spring Vegetable Soup Recipe Directions
- In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter on medium high. Add the flour and stir until it has a wet sand consistency to make the roux.
- Add 1/3 of the stock and whisk it in. Once it’s well combined, add the next 1/3 and repeat. Then finish the last 1/3. If you had added it all at once, it will become lumpy and thick and it’s hard to get the lumps out.
- Add nutmeg and let simmer for 30 to 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a saute pan, add a drizzle of olive oil and bring to medium high heat.
- Add the spring onions, ramps, asparagus, spring peas, and salt and pepper and cook until they’re all fork tender and delicious.
- Combine the veggies with the stock and serve. If desired, you could blend it together for a smoother taste, but Michael prefers to have the veggies independent so that you can taste the different spring textures.
- Enjoy!
