Place all of the veggies in a blender or food proccessor, and spin until well broken up, add some of the stock, and salt to taste, and spin some more, then return all this to the pot and reheat. Taste for seasoning and add more salt, and Calvin's or Jim Campbell's chile powder for as hot as you wish, and reduce this to the thickness you wish. This is a very asparagus-ie soup, with the heat coming through, but not overpowering the asparagus flavour. Hope you enjoy it and can get some into the little guy! Cheers, Doug in BC --------------81B3B23136C400D4BC8D2A81--
