Default Request: Asparagus soup

You're right. I *am* located in Sweden, but the pieces of asparagus in
the soup I had was green (and a bit crunchy, which I liked). I *like*
asparagus soup, but I normally can't eat it, as it might contain dairy
products, which will make me ill. That's why I was so happy to find
one which I could eat, and had hoped that someone in here would have a
recipe. Milk and cream I can easily replace, but non dairy
replacements for sour cream or yoghurt is quite expensive, if you want
something edible.
