A gentle simmer develops flavour gradually and keeps the texture controlled rather than breaking the ingredients apart. In creamy asparagus soup, unsalted butter, large shallots and asparagus are brought together in the stated order so their textures remain controlled and the seasoning is distributed evenly.
