O/T It's Asparagus Time Again
I have a 20' by 4' asparagus patch with established asparagus (OMG the WEEDING!). Any way, any asparagus recipes out there? I prepare them the way Jacque Pepin does them (asparagus with foaming butter) but am open to new ideas. I have frozen them in the past after briefly blanching for soup and the like. And of course the old standby, hollandaise sauce...

Love Asparagus...
I am hooked on eating steamed asparagus with a dripping sauce made out of mayo and soy sauce. Friends of ours are from Japan, got me started with the mayo and soy sauce drip. Yuko makes a killer wrap with Nori, sushi rice, steamed asparagus, and seared Ahi tuna, then dip into the mayo/soy sauce. Yummy!

Cut the asparagus into half inch pieces and cook in a little milk (no more than necessary). Sieve them and keep the cooking liquid. Add beaten eggs and a little cream, salt, pepper and a very, very tiny amount of chili pepper to the sieved asparagus and milk. Pour into buttered ramekins, cover and steam until set. Eat cold or at room temperature.
