Simply Steamed Asparagus image

Spring is the best time to take advantage of the subtle, grassy taste of fresh asparagus. Once steamed, it goes well with eggs, ham, and cheese, or even more intense flavors, such as soy sauce and ginger.

The asparagus was overcooked and the lemon-butter sauce was too lemony.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would add some salt and pepper to the asparagus before steaming.
