Step 1
Trim the 1 pound asparagus and cut into 1 inch pieces. Peel and chop the 1 medium onion.
Step 2
In a pot, combine the asparagus, onion, and 3 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until asparagus is tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Stir in the 0.5 cup heavy cream and juice of the 1 lemon. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Serve hot, garnished with the 0.25 cup fresh dill.
Step 5
If you like, add a pinch of nutmeg or cayenne for extra flavor.
