    Roasted Asparagus

    Ok.. so I got some frozen and tried it. I loved it... now I am wondering what it would taste like roasted. And how exactly would I do that?

    Fresh asparagus will work better for roasting than the frozen kind.

    But to roast asparagus, clean and trim the asparagus (the ends are a bit tough and fibrous, you can either snap off the ends and throw them away or you can use a vegetable peeler and peel the fibrous outer covering away.)

    Toss the asparagus with olive oil. Put in a large baking dish or cookie sheet. Roast in a 425 degree oven, turning them every so often until they are golden brown.

        Hey, dribble olive oil, pepper and salt and lay them on the BBQ grill, (charcol or gas) works great, I like mine a little brown. Yummy

          I like them both ways and they get sweet not like those tihings in the can my mother severed when I was a kid.

          I add garlic to the sheet when roasting and then have roasted garlic to go with them.

            I cook the green and fresh asparagus in a big pan with olive oil and sal Maldon. It is a special salt which may be sustituted for cooking salt. You must cover the pan while cooking and low heat. Delicious!
