Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pounds fresh asparagus, whole stalks
- water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Crisp, yet tender, steamed asparagus is a delicacy that is always welcome, especially at the first
early spring crop.
Directions
- Clean asparagus under running water. Snap the cut ends from the asparagus. They will snap
at the first node which will eliminate the toughest part of the stalk.
Add two inches of
water to an asparagus steamer, along with the salt, and boil. Add asparagus to the basket and
lower into the boiling water. Remove asparagus from steamer when the tips are just tender.
