Sweet and full of flavor, asiago is the cheese you didn’t know you needed. Made with onions and garlic and topped with crumbled bacon, this Cheesy Asiago Bisque is a winner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup chopped shallots
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 3 cups chopped, peeled potatoes, cut into bite-size chunks
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary, plus more leaves for garnish
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 cups shredded Asiago cheese, plus more for serving
  • 1 head roasted garlic (see Note)
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 bacon slices, cooked and crumbled, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots, onions, carrots, and celery and cook until tender, about 6 minutes.
  2. Add the potatoes, broth, wine, and rosemary. Cover and cook for 20 minutes.
  3. Add the cream and cook for 5 minutes more.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Asiago until melted.
  5. Carefully transfer the soup to a blender, add the roasted garlic, and puree until smooth and creamy. (Alternatively, blend the soup
    directly in the pot using an immersion blender.) Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Ladle into bowls and serve topped with more Asiago, the bacon, and rosemary.
