nope, ive never had it before now. I did add butter. I wouldnt say it was gross but it had its own taste. Ill try to saute it next time.0

Asparagus cooks really fast. I sauté it in butter or olive oil. I get the oil hot then toss in the asparagus. As soon as it turns a bright green it is done. Delicious. However, overcooked asparagus is gross.0

Always use fresh !! I tried canned and holy gross n mushy!! I use olive oil and some minced garlic and a little crushed red pepper to give it some 'bite'0

Common ways over here (I am assuming you are using fresh) are to wrap in parma ham or another thinly sliced ham and griddle or roast AND/OR dunk into a softly boiled egg with a little salt sprinkled on the egg. You could put a small slice of cheese or sliced olives or sundried tomatoes under the ham. or griddle and use instead of crisps/chips for a creamy dip.
Will be trying some of the ideas here! Agree dreadful if overcooked0 -
I cook 2 pounds of asparagus in 1 tbs. butter, granulated garlic, granulated onion for about 14 minutes, drain the butter off, sprinkle 2 tbs. of parmesean cheese, and eat. OMG!!! AMAZING!!!!
I get a lot of my recipes off allrecipes.com0 -

There is only one way to make asparagus. and steaming is not it! Fry them in a small amount of butter until al dente, and sprinkle some salt and pepper on them. The re my favorite veggie! I LOVE asparagus!!!
THIS all the way! I use Kosher salt and Mrs. Dash. nomnomnom0 -
