- 1 kilogram white Asparagus
- 20 grams Dried Morel
- 200 grams Whipped cream
- salt
- freshly ground peppers
- 2 Tbsps butter
- 1 pinch sugar
- Chives (for garnish)
Preparation steps
1.
Soak dried morels in lukewarm water, covered, about 1 hour. Strain soaking water through a sieve lined with a coffee filter. Reserve liquid. Rinse morels under running water to remove grit and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Rinse, peel and cut asparagus into small pieces. Cook asparagus in a pot of boiling water with sugar and butter, about 12 minutes. Drain well.
2.
Heat cream in a pot until simmering. Stir in 3 tablespoons of the reserved mushroom soaking water and season with salt and pepper. Add morels and asparagus and cook until heated through. Divide mixture among plates and garnish with chives. Serve with new potatoes, if desired.
