I made the brioche and prepared the potatoes and caramelised the onions and just couldn't find the energy to complete the recipe and put them all together!

I have been disappointed to have to drop out of that group for a while but I think I caught that exhaustion fever also. We all do try to do tooooo much, don't we. This is a good soup. A few too many steps, some unnecessary, in my opinion, so yours probably tasted about the same as Dorie's.

I served mine with home made corn muffins. Inspired by others, I'm going to have the leftovers cold (I tasted the soup, it's better that way). But I'm with you - not exactly amazing.

I dropped out of TWD, but the brioche pockets make me want to at least use the cookbook again. Looks like a fantastic asparagus duo meal.Betsyhttp://aplatefulofhappiness.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803470246363113005.post-2669810998089738682013-05-25T10:02:06.021-07:002013-05-25T10:02:06.021-07:00Those brioche pockets look so delicious.
