    the same way as regular. I like to boil it to al dente and then pan fry it a bit to get some colour on it in a touch of olive oil. Its really good.

    I put mine on a George Forman grill, sprinkle some lemon juice over them and some garlic powder...or sometimes red wine and garlic and then I just cook them in there for about 10-20 minutes depending on heat and they're delicous without even having to use any oil!!! Mmmmm....good thing I havn't made dinner yet...I'm going to make some!!!!

    If you like your asparagus crunchy (as I LOVE mine) try putting it on tin-foil, adding whatever flavor you like (Mrs.Dash is awesome, or garlic/lemon) and GRILLING it! Like you would grill fish!

    Try rubbing it in extra virgin olive oil, then sprinkle a little sea salt or Mrs/ Dash put in the oven at 350 until it reaches the desired tenderness you like.

    Grill 'em!!! Sprinkle them with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Or you can roast them that way. Green or white they both come out good.
