Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
2 medium leeks (white and light-green parts only), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 small fennel bulb, cored and thinly sliced
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1½ lb fresh asparagus, tough ends snapped off, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
½ tsp salt, plus more to taste
⅓ cup heavy cream
Chef's tip
Use unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable.

For serving

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Melt the butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the leeks and fennel and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 8–10 minutes.
2
Add the ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
