Trim roots and leaves from leeks, leaving only white and about 2 inches of green sections. Split lengthwise; slice crosswise about 1/4 inch thick.

Add can of mushrooms to either celery or asparagus soup. This makes a good combination. To this add 1 can milk; stir well while heating, then serve. With this serve croutons.

Cook asparagus in a small amount of water. Drain. Add to the sauce. Blend until texture is as smooth as you like.

Serve hot garnished with grated cheddar cheese. Makes 3 - 4 cups.

Cream of Asparagus Soup

This recipe sounds very interesting and I dearly love asparagus. My only suggestions: I'd leave out the flour and use potato flakes instead. Also, instead of cooking the asparagus in water I'd probably cook it in some kind of stock. IMO, all water is good for in a kitchen is making coffee or making stock, or washing dishes. I never cook with plain old water. (08/20/2005)
