Provided by Jennifer Farley

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, (divided)
2 teaspoons kosher salt, (divided, plus more as needed)
3 pounds fresh asparagus, (trimmed (approximately 3 bunches))
1 teaspoon ground black pepper, (divided)
2 cloves garlic, (minced)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups half-and-half
8 ounces Emmi USA Kaltbach™ Le Gruyère® AOP, (grated)
1 cup panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Place an oven rack on one of the top two shelves, then preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 3 or 4-quart casserole dish with cooking spray, butter or olive oil.
  • Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Cook the asparagus, in batches if necessary, until crisp-tender, 3-4 minutes depending on the thickness of the asparagus. Drain through a colander, shaking off any excess water, then transfer to the baking dish. Toss with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  • In the same pot, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in the flour and cook, stirring, until the mixture develops a nutty fragrance and darkens slightly, 2-3 minutes (this is known as a roux). Whisk in the half-and-half, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, then increase the heat to medium-high. Whisk until thick, 4-5 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat, then add the cheese in handfuls, whisking until smooth. Pour the sauce evenly over asparagus.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet, then stir in the panko and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Sprinkle over the cheese sauce.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then turn on the broiler. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden brown (watch closely to make sure they don't burn).
  • Serve warm.

I took one of our family's favorite puff pastry recipes, which uses a similar mix of ingredients, and translated it to savory waffles. It's a change of pace from sweeter fare.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Flour, for work surface
1 sheet frozen puff pastry
5 1/2 ounces (2 cups) Gruyere cheese, shredded
1 1/2 pounds medium or thick asparagus

Salt and pepper

Categories     Mixer     Cheese     Egg     Onion     Brunch     Bake     Vegetarian     Asparagus     Tarragon     Simmer     Gourmet     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound asparagus, trimmed
1 medium red onion, sliced thin
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
a pinch of sugar
2/3 cup coarsely grated Gruyère
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon leaves, or to taste
4 large eggs, separated
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a 10-inch non-stick skillet simmer the asparagus in water to cover for 3 to 5 minutes, or until it is just tender. Drain the asparagus, rinse it under cold water, and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut the asparagus crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces and transfer the pieces to a bowl. In the skillet cook the onion with salt and pepper to taste in 1 tablespoon of the butter over moderate heat, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes. Add the sugar, cook the mixture, stirring, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the onion is golden, and transfer the mixture to the bowl. Stir in the Gruyère, the tarragon, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • In the skillet, cleaned, heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter over moderate heat until it is melted, tilt the skillet to coat it, and remove it from the heat. In a bowl whisk the egg yolks with the flour and salt and pepper to taste until the mixture is thick and lemon-colored. In another bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they just hold stiff peaks, fold them into the yolk mixture gently but thoroughly, and pour the egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly. (If the skillet handle is plastic, wrap it in a double thickness of foil.) Bake the omelet in the middle of the oven for 7 minutes, or until it is puffed and almost cooked through, spoon the filling down the middle of it, and with a spatula fold the omelet in half to enclose the filling. Bake the omelet in the middle of the oven for 1 minute more, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked through.

ASPARAGUS GRUYèRE TART



Asparagus Gruyère Tart image

Categories     Salad     Bake     Buffet     Asparagus     Potluck     Pastry

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

Flour, for work surface
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce package), thawed according to package instructions
5 1/2 ounces Gruyère cheese, shredded (2 cups)
1 1/2 pounds medium or thick asparagus
1 tablespoon olive oil
Coarse salt and fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a 16-by-10-inch rectangle. Trim uneven edges. Place the pastry on a baking sheet. With a sharp knife, lightly score the dough 1 inch in from the edges to mark a rectangle. Using a fork, pierce the dough inside the markings at half-inch intervals. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove the pastry shell from the oven, and sprinkle with the cheese. Trim the bottoms of the asparagus spears to fit crosswise inside the tart shell; arrange in a single layer over the cheese, alternating ends and tips. Brush with the oil, and season with salt and pepper. Bake until the spears are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Scoring the Dough
  • Use a sharp knife to ensure that the edges rise evenly; pricking the center of the pastry with a fork keeps it from puffing up too high as it bakes.

Tips:

- Choose the right asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are firm and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are wilted or have woody bottoms. - Prepare the asparagus properly: Trim the woody ends of the asparagus spears and peel the bottom third of each spear. You can use a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife to do this. - Cook the asparagus correctly: Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of ways, but the most popular methods are steaming, roasting, and grilling. Steaming is the gentlest method and will preserve the asparagus's delicate flavor. Roasting and grilling will give the asparagus a slightly smoky flavor. - Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of the ingredients you use will greatly affect the flavor of the dish. Use fresh asparagus, good-quality butter, and freshly grated Gruyère cheese. - Serve the asparagus immediately: Asparagus is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that it is still tender and flavorful. ###

Conclusion:

Asparagus with Gruyère is a classic French dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The creamy, nutty flavor of the Gruyère cheese pairs perfectly with the tender asparagus spears. This dish is perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it can also be served as a side dish. With its simple ingredients and elegant flavor, asparagus with Gruyère is a dish that will impress your guests without requiring a lot of time or effort.
