It's spring, at least by the calendar, you never know in Utah. Here in Honolulu (with the "Gourmet Guy" again) it feels like the beginning of summer. Back at home it snowed yesterday it is so crazy. Before we left we grilled a great steak with a black pepper rub (thanks Costco!) and you know it is Spring when you start to see asparagus and strawberries for sale!
I usually steam the asparagus but this time I roasted it. I placed it on a baking sheet and poured a little olive oil and coarsely ground salt and tossed it on the shelf, then baked it at 400 for twenty minutes. It was wonderful!
I love grillin' and fresh spring fruits and vegetables.
We steam the asparagus in the microwave for a couple of minutes and then finish it by roasting it. We have found that roasting for the whole time makes the tips of the asparagus really crunchy and I am not a fan of that.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get your weather report from. It was beautiful here on Saturday, no snow at all! We rode bikes and scooters and really gave ourselves Spring Fever!
