ROASTED BALSAMIC GARLIC ASPARAGUS APPETIZER
After preparing AngelaTN's roasted asparagus for dinner recently, I just couldn't get enough of them! I wanted to make them again, but the event I was going to was a non-heating kind of thing, so I decided I'd put together an adapted version that would work well chilled or room temperature, as an appetizer. Here's what I came up with, and it's delicious! I made them as part of an anti pasto tray. Prep time does not include chilling.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
- Trim the asparagus: rinse the asparagus, cut about an inch off the ends, then use a vegetable peeler to take the outer layer off another inch of the remaining fibrous ends (easiest is to lay the spear on a flat surface then use peeler to gently take off the layer - careful, or you'll remove too much).
- Place the trimmed asparagus in a single layer on a non-stick baking sheet, then spray with an olive oil mister or drizzle evenly with olive oil (or spray with pan spray).
- Season with the sea salt and the freshly ground pepper.
- Place in oven and roast for 8 minutes (don't overcook).
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over very low heat melt the butter and extra virgin olive oil.
- Add the sliced garlic and simmer (again, over very low heat) for 5 minutes - careful not to burn.
- Remove from heat and add the soy sauce and balsamic.
- When asparagus is done, remove from the oven and place in a container which has an airtight cover.
- Place the garlic from the balsamic mixture on the asparagus; whisk the balsamic mixture well (I use a pigtail whisk) and pour it over the roasted asparagus.
- Cover tightly, shake, and place in refrigerator to chill (please note that the asparagus is still hot in the container, and that covering them and adding the sauce at this point will continue to steam them a bit for a few minutes).
- Chill for at least 4 hours before serving, the place attractively on serving platter.
- Goes well as part of an anti pasto course!
- Note: although I used these as an appetizer/snack, they could also work quite well as a side dish.

BALSAMIC ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH FLEUR DE SEL AND PARMESAN
This is based on a recipe from Second Helpings from Union Square Cookbook. Much to the dismay of family and friends, I could never learn to appreciate asparagus. It always reminded me somehow of eating grass. But I tried this recipe and finally found a way to love asparagus. This is incredibly simple, but the combination is superb. Spending the extra to get true fleur de sel is really worth it for this dish.

Tips:
- Choose the right asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are firm and have tight tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have woody ends.
- Trim the asparagus: Using a sharp knife, cut off the tough ends of the asparagus spears. You can also snap them off by bending the spears until they break naturally.
- Roast the asparagus at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the asparagus and give it a slightly smoky flavor. Roast the asparagus at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until it is tender-crisp.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: A good quality balsamic vinegar will have a rich, complex flavor. Look for a balsamic vinegar that is aged for at least 12 years.
- Add some fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as rosemary, thyme, or oregano, can add a nice flavor to roasted asparagus. Add the herbs to the asparagus before roasting.
- Serve the asparagus immediately: Roasted asparagus is best served immediately. It can be served as a side dish or as a main course.
Conclusion:
Roasted balsamic asparagus is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The asparagus is tender-crisp and has a slightly smoky flavor, while the balsamic vinegar adds a touch of sweetness and acidity. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
