1. In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add scallion whites and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add broth, 4 cups water, and potatoes to pot. Bring to a boil, and cook until potatoes are tender, about 12 minutes. Add asparagus and cook 3 minutes more. Stir in spinach and peas, and cook until spinach is wilted and peas are heated though, about a minute more. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in dill and scallion greens to serve.

Cook's Note
Creamy alternative: Use 6 cups chicken stock, no water, and add 2 cups milk along with asparagus.
