Creamy Asparagus and Cauliflower Soup

Creamy Asparagus and Cauliflower Soup
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
  • cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons nasturtium petals, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons diced asparagus tips, or more to taste


  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic in hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir chicken broth, cauliflower, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper into garlic. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until cauliflower is tender, about 15 minutes.
  2. Stir 2 pounds asparagus into cauliflower mixture and increase heat to high. Cook until asparagus is tender but still bright green, 5 to 6 minutes.
  3. Blend soup with an immersion blender until smooth; season with salt and black pepper. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with flower petals and diced asparagus tips.
