You show "7" steps, when you mean seven different methods.

When I was quite young my mother taught me how to cook asparagus; cut the ends off bluntly and cook till soft and mushy... not very tasty and you just couldn't cook it enough to soften up the woody ends. When I got a little older, early teen years I believe, I learned a new way from my aunt; snap the ends off to eliminate the woody part and cook just enough to get a very tasty and beautiful green colored delight. I much prefer my aunt's method of preparation. I sprinkle mine with lemon herb seasoning, a little butter and microwave steam for about 3 minutes. I'm glad to see others snap their asparagus too.

Great advice! I have shied away from cooking asparagus because I wasn't really sure how to prepare it. Thank you!

I use my grilling skillet, drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkle asparagus with a bit of salt, pepper and garlic. I really don't care for ginger or sesame oil on them. Grilling in a skillet is REALLY easy and nummy. : )

Mmmm, yum. My favorite way is roasting them with lemon juice, olive oil, chopped shallots and salt and pepper.

I saw a great asparagus recipe on a TV food show. She wrapped about 5 asparagus stalks with one slice of bacon, and then broiled them in the oven. They looked delicious!

12/19/2006 I did something very stupid. Very important to read directions carefully. I decided to prepare and stir-fry my Asparagus for 10 minutes in oil.....my end results were woody crunchy flat leef stalks. Taste was great. Appearance terrible. Next time I'll read recipe- donors comments *

Start off by cleaning the asparagus and chopping off 1 inch at the bottom of the stalks. Then place the asparagus in a casserole dish and fill 1/2 way with water to cover. Cook in microwave for 3-5 minutes until the stalks are soft. Remove from microwave, discard water, then add chopped garlic, butter, salt and pepper. Then add a few lemon slices and bake in oven at 400 degrees for 10-20 minutes. Once ready, take out and sprinkle with grated cheese.

Put the asparagus in a shallow dish with Itaian salad dressing microwave one minute at a time until it's done. Skinnier stalks take less time than larger ones.
