BLACK PEPPER SABAYON ON ASPARAGUS SPEARS



Black Pepper Sabayon on Asparagus Spears image

George Kelso of Edinburgh, Scotland, writes: "Although I grew up in Scotland and spent my early years as a chef here, I didn't start specializing in Scottish food until much later in my career. After working in London and at various restaurants in England, I returned to Scotland in 1988 to become chef at Ardsheal House in Argyll, where I started cooking exclusively with Scottish ingredients. We grew our own fruits, vegetables, and herbs, and even raised our own hens and ducks. That experience inspired the kind of cooking I do today at Haldanes, where I'm chef and owner. I keep the food preparation simple and use the freshest produce. That's why I use local suppliers as much as possible." This easy version of the classic egg yolk and wine sauce is made with mayonnaise and toasted peppercorns. It works well on meats, poultry, fish, and even sandwiches. Here, it ups the ante on vegetables.

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound medium asparagus (about 20 spears)
2 egg whites
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon paprika
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Prepare the asparagus by trimming off the tough woody stem.
  • Set up a breading station by whipping the egg whites and mayonnaise together (the mayonnaise helps the whites stick to the asparagus). Sprinkle with some salt and pepper.
  • In a separate, dish add the panko, Parmesan, Italian seasoning and paprika. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and mix. Dip each asparagus spear in the egg wash and then coat evenly in the seasoned panko breadcrumbs. Place the spears on a wire rack over a baking sheet and lightly drizzle with some olive oil (this will help them crisp up).
  • Bake until golden and crispy, 15 to 17 minutes. Serve immediately.

ASPARAGUS WITH PROSCIUTTO AND LEMON SABAYON



Asparagus with Prosciutto and Lemon Sabayon image

An airy, savory lemon sabayon and slices of silken prosciutto liberate spring asparagus from its typical accompaniment of hollandaise sauce.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch asparagus (about 1 pound), trimmed
Coarse salt
1/4 cup heavy cream
4 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 pound thinly sliced prosciutto di Parma
Finely grated lemon zest, for garnish
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook the asparagus in a large pot of boiling salted water until bright green and just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer asparagus to ice-water bath. When cool, transfer to paper towels to drain. (Asparagus can be refrigerated for up to 4 hours.)
  • Whisk cream until soft peaks form.
  • Place yolks, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a medium heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water or a double boiler. Whisk constantly, occasionally removing the bowl from the pan to prevent the mixture from getting too hot and curdling, until the mixture has thickened, about 4 minutes. (The whisk should leave a trail when pulled through the mixture.) Remove the bowl from the heat, and gently fold in the whipped cream until completely incorporated.
  • Arrange asparagus on serving plates, and drape prosciutto over the bottom portion of the spears. Spoon lemon sabayon over the tops of the spears. Garnish with lemon zest, and season with pepper. Serve immediately.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY LEEKS AND CAPERS



Roasted Asparagus With Crispy Leeks and Capers image

In this supremely springy recipe, thick asparagus stalks and thinly sliced leeks are glossed with olive oil and covered in salty capers. Everything is roasted in the same pan and emerges tender and golden-edged. Capers also make an appearance in the mustard sauce served alongside, which adds a tangy, mayonnaise-like richness. You can double the recipe, if you wish, though you may have to increase the roasting time by a few minutes to make up for a more-crowded pan. Serve this on its own as a first course, or as an accompaniment to roast chicken, braised meats or seared fish. Just don't use thin asparagus: It'll cook too quickly, before the leeks have a chance to turn golden. Stick with spears that are at least 1/2 inch in diameter.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound thick asparagus, ends trimmed
2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 large leek, white and light green parts, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons drained capers
Lemon wedges, for serving
1/4 cup parsley, leaves and tender stems, torn
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons drained capers, finely chopped
1 small garlic clove, finely grated or minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Put asparagus on a rimmed sheet pan and toss with 1 tablespoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well coated.
  • In a small bowl, stir together leeks, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle leeks on top of asparagus, then sprinkle with capers. Roast until asparagus are tender and golden brown, about 12 to 18 minutes.
  • While the asparagus stalks roast, make the mustard sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, capers and garlic. Slowly whisk in olive oil a few drops at a time to create a thick, emulsified dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Once asparagus stalks are out of the oven, squeeze a lemon wedge over it and sprinkle parsley on top. Serve with mustard sauce and more lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh asparagus spears that are tender and crisp.
  • To ensure the asparagus spears retain their bright green color, blanch them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes before transferring them to an ice bath.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can caramelize the sugar on the asparagus spears using a broiler. Just make sure to keep a close eye on them so they don't burn.
  • For a richer sabayon, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese or a pinch of cayenne pepper for extra flavor.
  • Serve the asparagus spears immediately after they are cooked, while the sabayon is still warm and frothy.

Conclusion:

This elegant and flavorful dish is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner. The asparagus spears are perfectly cooked and the black pepper sabayon adds a rich and creamy flavor. With its stunning presentation, this dish is sure to impress your guests.
