It's not asparagus season in central NY, (and it's never scallop season) but I love both and as you wrote "it’s pretty much the only time we eat asparagus all year, so we eat a lot of it". So, when the local asparagus shows up, I will have to find some scallops... I’ve never had, or heard of this combination.

Rhulman empowered you to make ONE GAZILLION FRESH VEG/other SOUPS....MORE even!. I will never look at another soup recipe book....again.! Maybe for inspiration but never to make anything from a recipe again. Just like in RATIO, Rhulman didn’t just show you how to make scallops and asparagus soup….

I grilled it stovetop, bright green with just a little crunch last night with mahi-mahi and garlic butter, and the fish was good, but the asparagus stole the show. Have to get some more and try that puree. Local asparagus just hit the Union Square Greenmarket in Manhattan this week.
