BASIC BOILED ASPARAGUS

Categories     dessert

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 pounds asparagus, the thicker the better
2 tablespoons salt (for boiling water)

Steps:

  • Bring about 6 quarts of water to a rapid boil in a covered pot large enough to hold the asparagus. Cut the bottom section- usually about 1 to 2 inches off the asparagus stalks with a sharp knife. Peel the asparagus by laying them flat, one at a time, on a cutting board. If the asparagus are thinner than 1/2-inch, use a vegetable peeler and peel the asparagus starting at the base of the tip and peeling them all the way down to the base, eliminating the fibrous peel and revealing the pale green flesh. If the asparagus are very thick or woody, use a paring knife and start peeling from the base. When ready to cook, toss the salt into the boiling water and carefully lower in the asparagus. Turn the heat to low and simmer the asparagus, uncovered, until the spears are easily penetrated with a knife, usually after about 5 minutes but from 1 minute for very thin asparagus to 12 minutes for the very thickest. If serving cold asparagus, plunge the hot cooked asparagus into ice water or rinse under cold water in a colander. Pat dry.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings as a light lun

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 pound thin pencil asparagus, blanched in boiling water, chilled and diced
1/4 cup assorted fresh chopped herbs: thyme, chives, chervil, etc.
Salt and pepper
12 large eggs, shelled and beaten with a wire whisk
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup Parmesan, grated
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In large bowl combine beaten eggs with the milk and Parmesan. Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan, until the butter is frothy. Add the onion and cook until the onion is translucent and golden, being careful not to burn them. Using a large wooden spatula, stir in the eggs and turn the heat down to very low. Stir the eggs to form a large flat omelet shape, fully covering the bottom of the pan. When the eggs begin to cook and take shape, stir in the diced asparagus and the herbs. Place the whole saute pan into the oven and continue to cook for 2 more minutes until the frittata is cooked around the edges and the center has puffed up.
  • Remove immediately form the oven. Invert the frittata onto a large platter and serve immediately.
