HERBED JULIENNED VEGETABLES
This is a beautiful and tasty way to make your diners pay attention to their vegetables! The combination of carrots, celery and turnip provides a mild but flavorful side dish. Take advantage of the seasons, altering the herbs and vegetables to follow your inspiration - tender asparagus spears with chives or chervil in the spring or wild mushrooms with rosemary in the fall.

Steps:
- Reserve 4 sprigs of tarragon for garnish. Remove the leaves from the remaining tarragon sprigs and chop them.
- With a chefs knife, cut the carrots, celery stalks and turnip into julienned strips about ¼"x ¼" by about 3" long.
- Make a parchment paper lid to fit the saute pan: Fold a square of parchment in half, triangularly, then in half again. Fold it over once or twice more to form a slender cone.
- Holding the paper cone over the pan with the tip hovering over the center, use the edge of the pan as a gauge to cut the cone. (Alternately trace a circle around an inverted saucepan onto the paper and cut the just inside the circle so that it will fit inside the saucepan).
- Unfold the paper round.
- Warm the butter until soft and brush a little over the paper round. Heat the remaining butter in the saute pan. Add the vegetable julienne and the herbs. Salt and pepper to taste and stir.
- Set the paper round on the vegetables, butter-side down. Cover the pan with the lid and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 15-20 minutes, taking care not to burn them.
- Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Using a julienne peeler, julienne the carrots. I hold the large part of the carrot, and pull the peeler down the length of the carrot.

- Prepare the asparagus: Trim the ends of the asparagus and wash. Peel the bottoms if they are tough.
- Bring some salted water to a boil in an asparagus steamer, or 12" saute pan with a lid.
- Cook the asparagus, covered, until tender crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Drain, and season with salt and pepper, and 1 teaspoon of the butter.
- Meanwhile, bring some salted water to a boil in a large saucepan.
- Add the carrots, and cook, covered, for 4-6 minutes, or until just tender crisp.
- Drain, and set aside. Melt the remaining butter in the saucepan, add the maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and a pinch of white pepper. Add the carrots and toss.
- To serve: put a pile of the carrots on the plate, and lay 3 to 5 asparagus spears over the top.
