    Cook lightly so they stay crunchy - steam or dry fry - and dip them into hard boiled eggs!

    A local recipe with white asparagus, but you can do it with green ones as well: steam your asparagus until tender, finely chop up a still warm hardboiled egg or two with some melted butter (a little goes a long way) and a handful of parsley.
    Salt and pepper.
    Serve as is, or with a slice of smoked salmon.

    I steam mine. I quite often make a dressing from olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It's very nice.

    Yesterday I fried mine in a cast iron skillet in the grill's fire box while smoking some pork steaks. As other's have suggested I use olive oil, salt and garlic powder. Overcooked 'em because I left them in the pan with lid too long and they ended up wilted - but still tasty.

    Think I'll go back to wrapping individual servings, 5 or 6 stalks, with bacon strips and grilling at about 250 degrees so I can check them frequently.

    I roast it with butter or olive oil, sea salt, pepper, feta and slivered almonds.

    It's the only way my hubby eats it. Lol

    I remember eating white asparagus on pizza in Germany, so tried using green when I made my own at home (I use a wrap for the crust). Love the bit of crunch it adds.
