ASPARAGUS QUICHE



Asparagus Quiche image

There's nothing I like better than getting all my housework done and "cooking up a storm" in the kitchen. I was raised in a farming community that had many asparagus growers. So I've always made sure that there's an ample supply of asparagus in my freezer! My husband is a grain farmer, and we have four grown children and 13 grandchildren.

ASPARAGUS WITH SAUCE GRIBICHE



Asparagus With Sauce Gribiche image

Sauce Gribiche is similar to an aioli or a mayonnaise sauce with chopped hard cooked eggs, capers, pickles and herbs. It is also terrific over meat or fish or even potatoes! You can substitute 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or to taste) instead of making your own. Taste and add mustard and/or vinegar, if desired. Also, use your choice of fresh herbs.

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

36 asparagus spears, trimmed
4 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and separated
1 egg (see description)
1 1/2 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard (see description)
1 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (see description)
fleur de sel (see description)
fresh ground black pepper (see description)
1/2 cup grapeseed oil (see description)
2 tablespoons capers, minced
2 tablespoons cornichons or 2 tablespoons pickles, minced

1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, minced
12 sprigs parsley or 12 sprigs chervil, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; prepare an ice water bath.
  • Cook asparagus until crisp-tender, about 4 to 5 minutes depending on size; plunge into water bath, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • Asparagus can also be pan fried, just until the tips are golden, instead of blanching.
  • Coarsely chop the egg whites and set aside; push the yolks through a sieve into a medium sized bowl.
  • Separate the egg and place the yolk into a large bowl; reserve the white for another use.
  • Whisk mustard and vinegar into the egg yolk; season with salt and pepper.
  • Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified and thickened.
  • Fold in capers, cornichons, herbs, egg whites, and egg yolks; taste and season again with salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Arrange asparagus on a serving platter, or individual plates; top with several dollops of the sauce and garnish with parsley or chervil sprigs.
  • NOTE: If substituting with mayonnaise, use about 1/2 cup of that (or more to taste) and leave out the egg entirely. Use mustard and vinegar to taste as well as the salt and pepper. Leave out the oil.

PAN-SEARED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY GARLIC



Pan-Seared Asparagus With Crispy Garlic image

Before asparagus got moved to its own botanical family, Asparagaceae, in the early 2000s, it was part of the lily family along with onions, chives, shallots and garlic. It makes sense then, that asparagus and garlic make such a good duo. When cooked with care, both can be mild and sweet (or pungent and bitter when cooked carelessly). To highlight the best of both ingredients, gently fry garlic into chips for a crispy topping, then use the lightly infused oil to sauté the asparagus. Both thin and chubby spears work, as would nearly any other vegetable you like with garlic: broccoli, kale, snap peas, fennel and more.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 bunch asparagus (about 1 pound), ends snapped or trimmed

Steps:

  • Place a paper towel-lined plate next to the stove. In a medium or large skillet, combine the garlic and olive oil over medium-low heat. Cook, shaking the skillet often, until the garlic is very light golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, tilt it, then use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic to the towel-lined plate, leaving the remaining oil in the skillet. Season the crispy garlic with salt.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper, and cook, shaking often, until bright green, crisp-tender and browned in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide onto a platter, including any oil in the skillet. Top with the garlic chips and season again with salt and pepper.
