ASPARAGUS IN A BLANKET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Unroll each pastry sheet onto a clean work surface. Take a chopped asparagus piece and measure out a little less than the width of it on the pastry sheet and cut the sheet into long, thin strips. Divide the strips into 3-inch pieces.
• To assemble, wrap the dough around the asparagus piece. Press the seam with your fingers to seal, and then set it seam side down on a baking sheet greased with cooking spray.
• Add 2 tablespoons of water to the beaten eggs and whisk quickly to combine. Using a pastry brush, brush each asparagus piece with the egg wash, then bake in the oven until the puff pastry is cooked and golden brown, about 15 minutes.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Prepare asparagus (see Rinse and Snap). On a rimmed baking sheet, toss asparagus with olive oil; season with coarse salt and ground pepper.
• Roast until lightly browned and tender, 8 to 10 minutes (depending on thickness).

ROASTED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp.

ASPARAGUS IN BLANKET

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface with lightly floured hands flatten the 4 pieces of dough to about 1/4" thick.Make 4 gundles of asparagus, 2 or 3 stalks to a bundle. Cut them in half crosswise. (You'll have 4 to 6 pieces per bundle.) Lay each asparagus bundle along one side of a piece of dough. Cover asparagus with a tomato slice, then layer cheese over it. Roll dough, starting with side closest to fillings to form the blanket, ending seam side down. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil lightly coated with olive oil. Let blankets sit on baking sheet about 15 minutes, or until they're room temperature. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

ASPARAGUS CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat Oven to 400˚F with the rack in the center. Butter a 9x13 casserole dish. Arrange trimmed asparagus in prepared casserole dish, packing it down for a fairly flat and even surface.
• Place a saucepan over medium heat. Melt in 3 Tbsp butter then add 2 1/2 Tbsp flour and whisk constantly for 3 minutes or until butter just starts to turn golden in color. Whisk in 2 cups half and half, 2 tsp garlic salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Whisk until sauce just starts to thicken then remove from heat. Sprinkle in 1/2 cup parmesan and whisk until cheese is melted and incorporated.
• Pour sauce evenly over the asparagus, leaving about 1" space on the long sides of the casserole dish. Bake uncovered at 400˚F for 15-18 minutes (depending on thickness of asparagus), or until asparagus reaches desired tenderness.
• While the casserole is baking, make the topping: in a small mixing bowl, melt 1 Tbsp butter. Mix in 1/2 cup bread crumbs, stirring until evenly moistened, then stir in 1/2 cup remaining parmesan cheese. Halfway through baking, sprinkle the bread crumb topping evenly over the casserole then return it to the oven to finish baking.
• When asparagus has reached desired doneness, set oven to broil for 2-3 minutes or until bread crumbs are golden brown. Remove from oven and serve.
