BUTTER-BRAISED ASPARAGUS



Butter-Braised Asparagus image

For the first-of-the-season asparagus, keep it simple with butter, lemon and sweet herbs. For the best texture, peeling the stalks really makes a difference.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     easy, quick, vegetables, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds large or medium asparagus
6 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon snipped chives
1 tablespoon roughly chopped parsley or chervil
1 teaspoon chopped tarragon, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon chopped dill, plus more for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Snap off and discard the tough bottoms of the asparagus spears. If using large, thick asparagus, peel the lower ends with a vegetable peeler.
  • Put butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus in one layer and season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup water, cover, and bring to a simmer. Cook until the asparagus is firm-tender, about 3 minutes. Take care not to overcook them; they should still be bright green. (They will continue to cook a bit once the heat is off.) Remove the asparagus from the pan and place on a serving platter.
  • Turn heat to high and simmer briskly until most of the liquid has evaporated, a minute or so. Add lemon juice and zest to the buttery juices. Turn off heat and stir in chives, parsley, tarragon and dill, if using. Check seasoning. Spoon the sauce over the asparagus, garnish with a few herb leaves, and serve.

ASPARAGUS WITH BROWN BUTTER



Asparagus With Brown Butter image

Writing in 1991, Jacques Pépin talked of his love of asparagus, stemming back to his childhood in France. His approach to the vegetable is as uncomplicated as it gets. "It is best when cooked in just enough water to steam it," he wrote. "It is ready - tender but still a bit firm to the bite - after a few minutes." Topped with a brown butter sauce, it's a perfect accompaniment to meat, poultry or fish, but also just as at home with some white rice, part of a simple weeknight meal.

Categories     quick, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 dozen large asparagus stalks with tight, firm tips (about 1 1/2 pounds; 4 per person)
1/2 cup water
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Peel the lower part (root end) of the asparagus stalks with a vegetable peeler.
  • In a large nonreactive saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the asparagus in one layer, cover and cook over high heat for about 6 minutes, to the desired tenderness. Lift asparagus from the water (most of it should have evaporated) and arrange on a platter.

EGG-IN-A-HOLE WITH ASPARAGUS



Egg-in-a-Hole With Asparagus image

What would you get if you crossed savory Parmesan French toast with egg-in-a-hole and served it beneath a pile of roasted asparagus? An easy, vegetable-focused brunch or light dinner that you can make on a single sheet pan. The key here is to use wide slices of bread large enough to hold two eggs each: Choose slices from the middle of the loaf. (If your bread slices are smaller, just use one egg in each.) Feel free to substitute other quick-roasting vegetables for the asparagus. Broccoli florets, halved cherry tomatoes or brussels sprouts, or sliced mushrooms will all work equally well. And if you want to double the recipe, use two sheet pans, arranging the bread on one and the asparagus on the other.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     breakfast, brunch, vegetables, main course

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
5 large eggs
1/3 cup whole milk
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 wide slices sturdy country white bread, such as sourdough or peasant bread (preferably from the middle of the loaf)
8 ounces asparagus, trimmed
3 scallions, thinly sliced
3 fresh thyme sprigs
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Grease a rimmed sheet pan with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
  • In a large, shallow dish, whisk together 1 egg, milk, 1/4 cup Parmesan, a large pinch of salt and pepper, and the remaining tablespoon melted butter. Add bread and let soak for about 2 minutes per side. The bread should be soft and soaked through, but not falling apart.
  • Arrange soaked bread on one side of the prepared sheet pan. Pour any remaining soaking mixture from bowl onto the bread slices. Using a cookie cutter or a knife, carefully cut 2 (2 1/2-inch) holes in each slice of soaked bread, making 4 holes in total. Place the cut-out rounds alongside the bread slices on the pan.
  • On the other side of the sheet pan, add the asparagus, half of the scallions (save the rest for garnish), thyme and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle asparagus with olive oil, tossing well, and spread into an even single layer.
  • Bake until bread is golden on top, 10 minutes. If the asparagus is tender and browned after 10 minutes, use tongs to transfer the stalks to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm. Thick asparagus may need more time, in which case leave it in the pan for the next step.
  • Using a spatula, flip the bread slices and cut-outs. Crack the remaining 4 eggs into the holes (the eggs may overflow a bit, and that is OK). Season eggs lightly with salt and pepper. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan on top of eggs and bread.
  • Return pan to the oven and bake until eggs are barely set, about 5 to 7 minutes. The yolks and even some of the whites should jiggle slightly. (Note that the eggs will continue to cook on the sheet pan once out of the oven, so if you like runny yolks, err on the side of early removal.) However, if the egg whites are still translucent, bake for another minute or two.
  • To serve, place egg toasts on plates, top each toast with half the asparagus (discarding the thyme sprigs) and garnish with reserved scallions.

ASPARAGUS WITH HORSERADISH BUTTER

Categories     Side     Roast     Quick & Easy     Father's Day     Horseradish     Asparagus     Spring     Butter     Gourmet     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 bunches asparagus (about 2 pounds), trimmed and halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 tablespoons drained bottled horseradish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in middle.
  • Toss asparagus with oil and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a 4-sided sheet pan. Roast until just tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Mash together butter, horseradish, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Toss asparagus with horseradish butter.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender asparagus spears with tight tips and no signs of wilting or bruising.
  • To snap the asparagus, hold the spear at the bottom and bend it until it snaps naturally. This will remove the tough, woody ends.
  • If you don't have a steamer, you can blanch the asparagus in a large pot of boiling water for 2-3 minutes, then immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature before mixing in the curry powder and garlic. This will help the flavors blend together smoothly.
  • If you don't have curry powder, you can substitute a mixture of ground cumin, coriander, and turmeric.
  • Serve the asparagus immediately after cooking, while it is still hot and tender.

Conclusion:

Asparagus with Curry Butter is a simple but flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The asparagus is tender and crisp, while the curry butter adds a delicious and unique flavor. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it is also a healthy and nutritious way to enjoy asparagus.
