I made this last night and it is the best! I followed others' advice and cut the milk down to 2 cups, and skipped the tamari. I also added a bit more of the white ground pepper for flavor. I'll be making it again soon!

I thought this was VERY good! I accidentally pureed the tips of the asparagus, but other than that, definitely a keeper! Great with some freshly shredded fontinella cheese and croutons on top - mmmmm!

Great Soup! Would certainly make it again. Left the tamari out ... it was salty enough without it. Might try some grated cheese as a garnish next time.

Great potential - way too much liquid as written. I cut my milk back to 1 1/2 cups, to keep a good texture on my soup. I definitely think 4 cups would kill the consistency, color and flavor of the asparagus. I love the recipe otherwise, so it's hard to give a less than glowing review, but I don't think this will come out all that great if you make it as written. Seasoned as written - love the dill in this. Thanks for the recipe!

Awesome soup!!!!! The flavors in this soup are great. I only used 3 cups of milk and did not heat it up. I added 4 tbs. white wine, 1 tbs. lemon juice, 1/2 cup sour cream and kept tasting and heating it and adding salt until I was satisfied. I used the whole asparagus. After I blended it, I ran it thru a cone mill and that kept the stingy pieces out. Very flavorful, creamy and excellent. I think the dill definitely helps this soup give it another layer of flavor that is great.

I was tempted to add some garlic (as we love garlic in our family) but decided to do the recipe exactly as written before changing things. The soup flavor is so multi-layered yet delicate I am actually glad I didn't add garlic as it may been a little over powering. Some people reduced the liquid to make it thicker but if you do the steps with the flour and the cooking times (I may have done a little more time on the flour step) the soup is wonderfully thick, creamy and flavorful. CostCo here has a ridiculously good deal on big bags of fresh asparagus. Take advantage. Fabulous recipe! Thanks!

Not having tamari, I used 1 Tbsp soy sauce, otherwise cooked it exactly as posted. It was wonderful, a delight to all the senses. Afterward, though, my husband said, "Wouldn't it taste great with some clams thrown in." Perhaps it was the second tablespoon of soy that left it wanting... No worries; I'll be playing with this recipe again quite soon. Suggested: combine butter, garlic and fresh basil then spread on a french roll. Toast until edges are brown and serve promptly. Didn't have any, but a nice Chianti would be perfect!

Great recipe. I didn't add the soy sauce, and I didn't measure the milk. I just poured it in from the carton to get just the right consistency.

This was a great recipe! I made this soup-for-two, so I halfed the recipe. I used half cream and half milk, instead of all milk. I also added about 1 tsp. of sugar. Delicious!!! Thanks.

I made this soup for my hubby's lunch this week. He just emailed me: "Oh my gosh, that soup was fabulous Honey." I've been making his lunch for a long time now and I've never heard that kind of praise before! I used whole wheat flour and 1% milk based on my hubby's request to "make it healthy". And I cut the soy sauce in half (and used low sodium) based on the other reviews. Turned out perfect.

This is very tasty. I added about 3-4 tbsp. of white cooking wine to enhance the soup's flavor, and since I didn't have white pepper on hand, I used the standard black pepper. I also used approx. 1/4 cup of half-n-half (in lieu of some of the milk) to give it a rich texture. The end result was fabulous. Hubby and even my baby daughter (she had about 2 spoonfuls) really enjoyed it!

Made this last night--very good! Put in 2/3s the milk and used chicken stock instead of water and left out the tamari... yum! Ate it with ciabatta bread. I bet a little parmesan on top would have been good--isn't it always?

As per previously recommended, I decreased the milk to 2 cups and did not use the tamari. The soup tasted great and was a nice consistency. My husband is not a big soup person but he went back for seconds on this one! Thanks!

I skipped the tamari based on other reviews. Also, only added 2 cups milk as I wouldn't want it any thinner. It was very good served with some homemade bread. My only objection was that I would have wished that it had made a larger quantity!
