In reply to Dana @ IveGotCake. It was great! You get that warmth from the nutmeg but yet the zesty zing of lemon zest. Had me rocking back and forth when I ate it. ((Warm Pizzazz))

TI agree with Marta, interesting combination using lemon zest but what really took me by surprise was the addition of nutmeg.
What did the final result taste like?

In reply to Anonymous. Hi! Yes, trimming meaning getting rid of the hard part. If you click the link in under the ingredients where it says "trimmed" the link will take you to another post that tells you the best method for trimming. Hope you enjoy the soup. It's delicious! :)

Sounds yummy! By trimming the stalks do you mean trimming the hard part off? Not that familiar with asparagus but want to try this. Thanks!

In reply to Marta. Hi Marta! So glad you like this soup and the zest idea. The zest adds just a little more freshness to the soup. I think you will love it! :)

I loooove asparagus, I make a very similar soup too, but lemon zest seems to be a very interesting addition to it. Will try soon! 🙂
