CHICKEN CREPES WITH ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOMS
Steps:
- Make filling:
- Heat 5 tablespoons butter in a 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat until foam subsides. Whisk in flour and cook roux, whisking, until pale golden, about 2 minutes. Gradually add milk and broth, whisking, and bring to a boil, whisking. Reduce heat and simmer gently, whisking frequently, until velouté sauce is silky and thick, about 25 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup sauce for topping.
- Cook shallot in remaining tablespoon butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Stir into velouté sauce along with chicken and Sherry.
- Cut tips from asparagus and set aside. Cut enough stalks into 1/4-inch pieces to measure 1 cup, reserving remainder for another use. Cook tips in a saucepan of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice and cold water with a slotted spoon. Scoop out tips and drain on paper towels, then reserve for topping. Cook and drain chopped asparagus in same manner and stir into velouté sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
- Make crêpes:
- Sift together flour, salt, nutmeg, and pepper to taste into a bowl. Whisk together milk, whole egg, and yolk in a small bowl, then gradually whisk into flour mixture. Force batter through a fine sieve into a bowl.
- Heat a dry 7- to 8-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot, then brush very lightly with some melted butter. Spoon about 2 tablespoons batter into skillet, tilting to coat bottom. (If batter sets before skillet is coated, reduce heat slightly for next crêpe.) Cook until underside is lightly browned, 6 to 10 seconds, then loosen crêpe with a spatula and flip. Cook until just cooked through, about 20 seconds, and transfer to a plate. Make 15 more crêpes in same manner, brushing skillet with melted butter as needed and stacking crêpes on plate.
- Assemble and bake crêpes:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spread 1/4 cup filling across center of 1 crêpe and roll into a cylinder. Transfer, seam side down, to buttered baking dish, then assemble more crêpes in same manner, fitting them snugly. Bake in middle of oven 15 minutes.
- Make topping while crêpes bake:
- Stir together yolk, 2 tablespoons cream, and reserved 1/2 cup sauce until smooth. Beat remaining 3 tablespoons cream with a whisk until it holds soft peaks, then fold into yolk mixture.
- Spoon topping over crêpes and broil 5 to 6 inches from heat until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
- Heat butter in skillet, then add reserved asparagus tips and toss until warm.
- Put 2 crêpes on each of 8 plates and top with asparagus tips.

BUCKWHEAT CREPES WITH ASPARAGUS, HAM AND GRUYèRE
In Brittany, large buckwheat crepes are known as galettes and are filled with all sorts of savory ingredients. A classic one is made with ham and cheese. This scaled-down rendition adds sweet asparagus, which goes well with the nutty flavor of buckwheat flour. Traditionally they are served with a glass of sparkling cider.

Steps:
- Make the batter: Whisk together flours, eggs, buttermilk and salt until well combined. Put the batter in the fridge for at least 2 hours or, preferably, overnight. If necessary, thin batter with a little more buttermilk or water, to the consistency of heavy cream.
- Heat a crepe pan or well-seasoned cast iron skillet, about 8 inches in diameter, over medium-high heat. Use a piece of paper towel to rub a little butter in the pan, then quickly ladle in about 1/4 cup of batter. Swirl the pan to spread the batter all the way to the perimeter. Let crepe brown on one side for a minute or so, until crisp. Flip it over with a spatula (or carefully with your fingers) and cook one minute more. Don't worry about browning the second side. Adjust heat if crepe browns too quickly; the pan needn't be scorching hot. Remove from heat if crepe is cooking too quickly.
- Remove the crepe from the pan and set it aside while you continue to make 5 more. Stack crepes on top of each other as they are finished. (Crepes may be made in advance.)
- Bring a medium pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook the asparagus for 2 minutes, or just until it is firm-tender, then drain and spread on a clean kitchen towel to cool.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Fill the crepes by laying each one top-side down, place a slice of ham on top, sprinkle generously with cheese, and lay 3 asparagus spears on top, off to one side. Fold over to make a half-moon.
- Put the filled crepes in one layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with a little melted butter, then bake until they are crisp and the cheese is melted, about 5 to 7 minutes. Serve immediately.

ASPARAGUS MUSHROOM PARMESAN CREPES
My journey to finding the right texture and taste for a wonderful vegetable crepe started with fresh asparagus that needed to be used. Wanting to try something different, I thought crepes would be a nice change of pace. I married several different techniques and put them together to create these wonderful, creamy perfect textured...

Steps:
- 1. FOR THE CREPE BATTER: Mix all crepe batter ingredients together. Blend until smooth and no lumps are present. Put the batter in the refrigerator for one hour. This will stay good for 48 hours in the fridge, so if you want, you can mix it up ahead of time. The idea of letting it rests, helps so that all air bubbles are out of the batter and also helps so that the crepes do not tear while you cook them.
- 2. When the hour is up (or you chilled the batter longer, doesnt matter) take the batter out and give it a good mix again.
- 3. With a frying pan, crepe pan or small omelet pan put on heat of the stove top and get it hot. Add a little (like 1 teaspoon) of oil if your pan is not non-stick. Ladle about a few tablespoons of batter onto the hot frying pan, and take the handle and twirl the batter around until you get a circle and batter stops moving around. When you see a few bubbles forming underneath and edges are just starting to get a golden color, flip the crepe over and cook for an additional minute. Remove to plate as you continue making the crepes. You can stack them on top of each other, they wont stick. Set the crepes aside.
- 4. FOR THE VEGETABLES: Take the asparagus and with both hands, "snap" it in half. Where it breaks will be the bottom part of the stem that is too tough. Put to the side. Get a large pot of water to boil, and add asparagus that has been snapped. Par boil for only 2 minutes. Then IMMEDIATELY plunge the asparagus into icy cold water, rinsing and then keeping them in very cold iced water until ready to sear. When ready to sear, take out of water to dry them slightly.
- 5. Chop the onion and mushrooms. In a large frying pan, add 1 Tablespoon of olive oil, and 1 Tablespoon of butter. Get the pan searing hot and then add onion, salt and pepper to taste. Let it cook until transparent (about 2-3 minutes) Add the sliced mushrooms to the onion. Sear until the moisture evaporates from the mushrooms, and the mushrooms just start to brown. Set aside to cool. Do not rinse the pan and keeping it hot, Add 1 Tablespoon of butter and 1 Tablespoon of olive oil to the hot pan. Let the butter melt (will melt very quickly) then add the asparagus stalks that have been snapped and drained from the ice bath. Pan sear them, covering with a lid and every minute or so, open the lid and stir the asparagus around. You are looking to steam them when the lid is on, and also get them to just starting to brown a bit. Take off heat, and set aside.
- 6. FOR THE SAUCE: Melt the butter in a sauce pan. Add the flour and stir until it forms lumps and all the butter and flour are blended together. Add the milk all at once and stir stir stir constantly, until it starts to thicken. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the parmesan cheese and stir to melt. Take off heat and set aside.
- 7. NOW TO ASSEMBLE THE CREPES: Place about a Tablespoon of the sauce on a crepe. Smooth it over to cover most of the crepe. Sprinkle some mushroom/onion down the middle of the crepe. Add 4-6 asparagus stalks to the center. Roll up the crepe and place it seam side down onto a 9x13 inch baking dish. Assemble the rest of the crepes and line them up in the baking dish.
- 8. Take the extra sauce and run it down the middle of the crepes. Sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese, if desired. (maybe a 1/4 cup of so) Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. The parmesan cheese will be melted on top of the sauce.
- 9. NOTE: This seems very involved, but really it isnt. You can make ahead many of the steps. Also, if you have left over asparagus, you are half way there! The mushrooms are optional, but a good addition. I can see having extra mushrooms when doing steaks, they would go well in these crepes as well.... you get the idea. Also, the crepes themselves can be done a day ahead of time as well. Then assembly is the only step left. :) I was very happy with the results. If you are still reading this recipe, it must sound good to you too! :)~ You wont be disappointed!

Tips for Making Asparagus Crepes:
1. Choose the Right Pan: Use a flat, non-stick crepe pan or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet. This will ensure even cooking and prevent the crepes from sticking. 2. Make Sure the Pan is Hot Enough: Heat the pan over medium-high heat until it is hot enough to sizzle a drop of water. This will ensure that the crepes cook quickly and evenly. 3. Use the Right Amount of Batter: Pour a thin layer of batter into the pan, just enough to cover the bottom. Swirl the pan to evenly distribute the batter, creating a thin and even crepe. 4. Cook for the Right Amount of Time: Cook each crepe for about 1 minute per side, or until it is golden brown and cooked through. Flip the crepe carefully using a spatula to prevent tearing. 5. Keep the Crepes Warm: As you cook the crepes, place them on a warm plate or baking sheet covered with a clean kitchen towel. This will keep them warm and prevent them from drying out. 6. Use Fresh Asparagus: For the best flavor, use fresh asparagus that is in season. Look for asparagus spears that are firm and brightly colored, with tightly closed tips. 7. Cook the Asparagus Properly: Blanch the asparagus in boiling water for 1-2 minutes, or until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Drain the asparagus and immediately transfer it to an ice bath to stop the cooking process and preserve its bright green color.Conclusion:
Asparagus crepes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be filled with a variety of ingredients, making them a perfect option for any occasion. With the right ingredients and a little bit of practice, you can easily master the art of making asparagus crepes at home. So, gather your ingredients and give this recipe a try – you won't be disappointed!
