THE BEST ROASTED ASPARAGUS
The perfect roasted asparagus should be lightly browned and tender, yet bright green and crisp. Roasting the spears at a high temperature helps achieve this. We also browned grated Parmesan to make a nutty, crumbly frico topping. Wait until ready to serve to top the vegetables so the crisped cheese stays crunchy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
- Put the asparagus, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Toss to coat evenly. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned and tender, but still bright green.
- Meanwhile, spread the Parmesan evenly in the bottom of a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook undisturbed until the cheese melts, sticks together and turns golden brown, about 2 minutes, then flip with a rubber spatula and cook until golden on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the frico to a wire rack-lined baking sheet to cool completely, about 2 minutes. Break the frico into small crumbles and put in a small bowl. Add the lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and toss to combine.
- Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the top. Top with the crumbled frico mixture.
GORGONZOLA SAUCE
Steps:
- Bring the heavy cream to a full boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then continue to boil rapidly for 45 to 50 minutes, until thickened like a white sauce, stirring occasionally.
- Off the heat, add the Gorgonzola, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and parsley. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt and serve warm. If you must reheat, warm the sauce over low heat until melted, then whisk vigorously until the sauce comes together.
ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH TOMATOES AND GORGONZOLA
This recipe came from a friend who described this dish to me after eating it in a restaurant in Key West. From the description I evolved this recipe, and it works. My friend said it tasted identical to the restaurant version.

Steps:
- 1. Heat oven to Broil (500 degrees).
- 2. Clean asparagus, removing woody bottom portion. Spread flat on a jelly roll baking sheet. Shake olive oil evenly on all the asparagus. Season to taste with S&P and seasoning. (I use Morton's)
- 3. Have tomatoes halved, place on same baking sheet, in separate area of pan, as asparagus. Season them with the olive oil and seasonings as well.
- 4. Place under broiler for 3 minutes, turn asparagus, broil another 2-3 minutes till tender crisp. Remove from oven, place asparagus, topped with tomatoes on oven proof serving dish. Sprinkle heavily with the Gorgonzola cheese. Place under broiler just until cheese melts...Serve immediately.
- 5. Often I cook the asparagus and tomatoes halfway, then continue the cooking process at the last minute, so it gets to the table warm, gooey and delicious. ENJOY!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F/200C. Cover a large baking sheet with foil and then spray with oil or non-stick spray, or skip the foil and spray the baking sheet a bit more thoroughly if you prefer not to use foil.
- Hold a piece of asparagus at both ends and break to see where the woody part starts, then trim asparagus spears to that length. Cut asparagus in half on the diagonal, or make slightly shorter pieces if you prefer.
- Cut off both ends of the peppers and cut out seeds. Then make a slit in each pepper to cut it open, flatten it out, and cut into lengthwise strips the same width as the asparagus.
- Toss asparagus pieces and pepper strips with the olive oil. Spread out on the baking sheet and season to taste with salt and fresh-ground black pepper.
- Roast asparagus and peppers for 15 minutes, or until it's done to your liking.
- While asparagus roasts, crumble the Gorgonzola. (Keep it in the fridge until right before you crumble so it's not too soft and sticky.)
- When the asparagus and red peppers are cooked to your liking, toss with the crumbled Gorgonzola and serve hot.

Steps:
- Take 3 sheets and butter the first then lay the 2nd on top, then butter the 2nd sheet, and then lay the 3rd sheet on top Now slice the sheet in 2 1/2 inch strips, cut each strip 4 inches. Each strip should be 4 inches long by 2 1/2 inches wide.
- Take the asparagus that has been trimmed and steamed, al dente, and place on the cut puff pastry, now brush with a little melted butter and then put a teaspoon full of cheese on it.
- Now wrap the pastry over the asparagus as in a roll. It's ok if the tip and end sticks out; seal the pastry with melted butter and put in a plastic container till ready to use and freeze.
- When ready to use, put on a greased cookie sheet and put in the oven on the middle rack or in a toaster oven. Bake in the oven on high heat till the pastry turns golden color and the cheese starts to ooze out the ends. Don't over bake or they will burn.
- Note: The reason I have put the ingredients at one each is so you can make as little or as much as you want, just follow the amount for each item how many you want to make.

TAGLIATELLE PASTA WITH ASPARAGUS AND GORGONZOLA SAUCE
Tagliatelle Agli Asparagi E Gorgonzola -- This recipe is a flavor powerhouse made with minimum effort. Cooking asparagus in the pasta pot saves one major step. The Gorgonzola would provide plenty of flavor if tossed in uncooked, but tossing it with the pasta and asparagus mellows its pungency and contributes to a subtle, balanced blend of flavors.
