PAN-SEARED ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH FRISéE AND FRIED EGG
Here is a fine variation on the old combination of egg and asparagus. It is a twist on the bistro staple, frisée aux lardons, with pan-fried asparagus standing in for the bacon lardons. It's mixed with the frisée and a pungent garlic vinaigrette laced with a little anchovy. Then, in place of the usual poached egg nestled in curling frisée leaves, fry an egg until the edges are crisp and brown. This adds a vaguely baconlike nuance to the salad, without the meat.

Steps:
- Mash the garlic and a pinch of salt into a paste with the side of a knife. Mix it in a small bowl with the anchovy, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons oil.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat for 20 seconds. Add 3 tablespoons oil. When it shimmers, add the asparagus. Toss occasionally until golden brown and almost tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and cook until tender, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Transfer to a large bowl; add the frisée and the garlic-anchovy dressing and toss gently.
- Return skillet to medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Crack in the eggs; season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook until the eggs are just set, about 3 minutes.
- Divide the salad between two serving plates. Top each with an egg.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH FRIED SAGE
This is a great side dish from The Herbfarm Cookbook. The Herbfarm is a small restaurant, east of Seattle. They grow all of their own herbs all over the property, and use them fresh in their recipes. As it is a small restaurant, they have small dinner parties - most times you have to make reservations about 9 months in advance. Then you are served a wonderful 9-course meal prepared with the freshest herbs in season at the time. I haven't been there yet, but it sounds like a wonderful experience. You can roast the apsaragus ahead of time, but don't dress the spears until ready to serve, since the lemon juice drains their color.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450ºF. Trim the bottoms of the asparagus spears at the point where they turn pale and tough. If the spears are medium to thick, peel the lower 2/3 of the trimmed spears with a sharp vegetable peeler. Thin spears do not need to be peeled. Place them in a bowl and toss with the chopped sage, olive oil and a light sprinkle of salt. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast until the spears are slightly limp when you hold them from the bottom, 4-8 minutes depending on their thickness. They will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. Let cool.
- Fried Sage:.
- Heat the oil in a 1 1/2 - 2-quart saucepan. Drop in half of the sage leaves and turn them in the oil with a wire skimmer or slotted spoon. They'll sizzle loudly at first, but if they're dry, they won't splatter. Fry for only 10 to 15 seconds, then remove them to paper towels to drain. Do not let the leaves brown. Fry the remaining sage leaves and sprinkle them all lightly with salt. They should crisp when they cool. The sage can be fried up to 1 day ahead of time; it will stay crisp if stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
- Cheese:.
- Hold a wedge of Parmigiano in your hand and use a sharp vegetable peeler with light pressure to shave thin curls of the cheese into a bowl. You'll want to shave off 2 ounces, about 1 cup.
- Dressing:.
- Combine all the dressing ingredients except the olive oil in a small mixing bowl, then whisk in the oil.
- Assembling the salad:.
- When ready to serve, toss the asparagus with the dressing in a large bowl. Arrange the asparagus in a fan shape on a serving platter or individual plates. Sprinkle with the Parmigiano shavings and then with the fried sage leaves. If you have a sage plant that's flowering, sprinkle the salad with some of its blossoms.
- Variation:
- Warm Roasted Asparagus with Sage Butter:.
- Roast the asparagus spears as directed. While they are roasting, melt 4 tablespoons unsalted butter in a small (8-inch) skillet over medium-low heat. Add the 30 sage leaves and cook, stirring often, until the butter begins to brown slightly and the sage gives off a nutty, toasty aroma, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the finely sliced zest of 1 lemon, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Transfer the asparagus to a warm platter and spoon the sage leaves and lemon butter on top. Sprinkle with the Parmigiano shavings and sage blossoms if available.

ROASTED MIXED VEGETABLES
Make this your go-to recipe any time roasted vegetables are on the menu. The technique will work for any high-moisture vegetable, and the process of cutting your selected vegetables into 1-inch pieces allows them all to cook at the same rate. The optional garlicky yogurt sauce turns a pan of roasted veggies into a light meal, especially when paired with some crusty bread or a bowl of rice or other grains, or you can serve these as a colorful side dish.
