Roasted Asparagus with Herb Goat Cheese image

ASPARAGUS WITH CHEESE SAUCE AND HERB BREADCRUMBS



Asparagus with Cheese Sauce and Herb Breadcrumbs image

Spring's bright, fresh vegetables don't need heavy sauces to dress them up-they are best served with a light adornment so that their natural tastes can shine through. In this easy, 25-minute recipe for asparagus, a stress-free cheese sauce is made by simmering heavy cream until thickened, then stirring in Parmesan cheese. A word of advice: this cheese sauce for asparagus will set up if left to cool, so you want to keep it warm if you are not serving it right away. The asparagus should also be served almost immediately after broiling, or it will turn an ugly dark green if allowed to sit too long. Headed to the farmers' market for fresh produce, including asparagus? Get there early for the freshest picks. Don't buy stalks that look dried out, shriveled, or look less than fresh. And don't let fresh asparagus waste away in your fridge! It's best the first few days after it's purchased. Check out these recipes for inspiration. Snap off any hard ends and trim feathery tips before you start cooking. That way, the asparagus will be ready to eat as soon as it's cooked.

ASPARAGUS AND CHEESE TART



Asparagus and Cheese Tart image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound asparagus, trimmed
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (about 1/2 pound), thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 cup grated fontina cheese (about 3 ounces)
1 cup grated comte or gruyere cheese (about 3 ounces)
1 tablespoon minced shallot
2 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons whole milk
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Fill a large bowl with ice water. Bring about 1 inch of water to a boil in a large skillet. Add the asparagus; cook until bright green and crisp-tender, 2 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the asparagus. Drain and transfer to the ice water to stop the cooking; drain and pat dry. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Roll out the puff pastry into a 10-by-16-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and prick all over with a fork. Bake until light golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet.
  • Meanwhile, mix the fontina, comte, shallot, egg yolks, milk, nutmeg and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a bowl until combined. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Toss the asparagus with the olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Arrange the asparagus on the tart and bake until the cheese mixture is slightly puffy, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with the lemon zest. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ASPARAGUS, HERB AND GOAT CHEESE PUFF PASTRY



Asparagus, Herb and Goat Cheese Puff Pastry image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces fresh goat cheese
1/2 cup ricotta
3 large eggs
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/3 cup roughly chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill fronds
1 tablespoon lemon zest
2 cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound thick-stem asparagus, trimmed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
One 8-ounce sheet puff pastry, thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the goat cheese, ricotta and 2 eggs to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse until the mixture is evenly combined. Next, add the Parmesan, parsley, chives, dill, lemon zest, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pulse once again to combine all the ingredients. The mixture may look slightly liquidy, but once it bakes the egg will help stabilize the cheese mixture. Set aside.
  • On a separate rimmed baking sheet, toss the asparagus with the olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
  • Unroll the puff pastry on a lightly floured work space and dust a rolling pin lightly with flour. Roll the puff pastry out to a 13-by-11-inch rectangle. Add the goat cheese-herb mixture to the puff pastry and spread it out into an even layer, leaving a 1-inch border all the way around the puff pastry. Nestle in the asparagus into the cheese mixture, alternating directions.
  • To make the egg wash, whisk the remaining egg with a splash of water. Use a pastry brush to brush the exposed crust all the way around the edges.

CREAMED ASPARAGUS ON TOAST



Creamed Asparagus on Toast image

My mom made this when I was a kid. My wife makes it for me often. It's easy and delicious. I am not a big fan of asparagus prepared any other way. I like to pour over one slice of toast, add another on top, and then pour more over it.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed
5 tablespoons butter, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
6 slices bread, toasted

Steps:

  • Place asparagus into a large pot or skillet and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain.
  • Mix 3 tablespoons butter and flour together in the same pot over medium-low heat until flour is dissolved and mixture is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Add milk, asparagus, and salt to butter-flour mixture and simmer until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • When choosing asparagus, look for spears that are bright green and have tight, closed tips. Avoid spears that are wilted or have brown or yellow spots.
  • To prepare the asparagus, trim off the woody ends. You can do this by snapping off the bottom inch or two of each spear, or by using a sharp knife to cut off the ends.
  • To cook the asparagus, you can either steam it, boil it, or roast it. Steaming is the gentlest method, and it preserves the asparagus's nutrients and flavor. Boiling is a quick and easy method, but it can make the asparagus mushy if it's overcooked. Roasting is a great way to caramelize the asparagus and give it a smoky flavor.
  • When making the herbed cheese spread, use fresh herbs for the best flavor. You can use any combination of herbs that you like, but some good choices include chives, basil, parsley, and thyme.
  • To toast the bread, you can either use a toaster or a skillet. If you're using a skillet, heat a little bit of butter or olive oil over medium heat and toast the bread until it's golden brown and crispy.

Conclusion:

Asparagus with herbed cheese on toast is a delicious and easy appetizer or light meal. It's perfect for spring and summer, when asparagus is at its peak. With its vibrant green color and delicate flavor, asparagus is a beautiful and tasty addition to any table. When paired with creamy herbed cheese and crispy toasted bread, it becomes a truly irresistible dish.
