THE BEST GRILLED ASPARAGUS



The Best Grilled Asparagus image

We found that the best way to grill asparagus is to lay it right on the grill grates at an angle--no foil packet or grilling basket necessary. We jazzed ours up with tangy, creamy feta and fresh mint. To get a good char, be sure to use medium-sized asparagus -- no pencil-thin stalks here!

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bunch medium asparagus (about 3/4 pound)
Juice of 1 lemon (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, finely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (about 1 ounce)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium heat. Chop the tough, woody ends off the asparagus (about 1 inch) and peel another inch of the stalks.
  • Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Add the asparagus and toss until well coated.
  • Put the asparagus on the grill at an angle so the stalks don't fall through the grates. Grill, flipping halfway through cooking, until the asparagus begin to char, the pointy ends start to crisp and the stalks are just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with the feta and mint.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS



Grilled Asparagus image

Editor's note: The recipe and introductory text below are adapted from Elizabeth Karmel's Web site, girlsatthegrill.com . Grilling asparagus miraculously transforms it from the kind of vegetable you hated as a kid to a sweet, meaty, lip-smackin' treat that you can't get enough of as an adult. Contrary to popular belief, look for the fatter stalks when buying asparagus-they are much better suited to grilling and actually have better flavor. This is the least amount of work you will ever have to do to be considered the Queen or King of the Grill.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound fresh asparagus
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt (use salt according to taste)

Steps:

  • Trim off the tough bottom of the spear by grasping each end and bending it gently until it snaps at its natural point of tenderness-usually two-thirds of the way down the spear. If the spear is less than 6 inches long, chances are it has already been trimmed for you. Alternatively, you can cut the ends off with a knife.
  • Coat each spear with olive oil by placing clean, dry spears in a resealable plastic bag, pour in the oil, and massage spears to coat each one. Sprinkle with salt and massage again. Leave the asparagus in the bag until ready to cook.
  • Place on the cooking grate crosswise so it won't fall through. Grill for 10 to 15 minutes (depending on the size and thickness of the stalks), turning occasionally to expose all sides to the heat. Asparagus should begin to brown in spots (indicating that its natural sugars are caramelizing) but should not be allowed to char.
  • Remove from grill and serve immediately-eating spears with your fingers enhances the experience.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH CAPER-CORNICHON VINAIGRETTE



Grilled Asparagus with Caper-Cornichon Vinaigrette image

Inspired by gribiche, the French sauce traditionally served with steamed asparagus, this salad takes a modern approach by grilling the spears then piling them on a platter with sliced hard-cooked eggs. The mustard vinaigrette, chock-full of cornichons and capers, preserves all the briny goodness of the original sauce.

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 large eggs
1 tablespoon white-wine or Champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon country-style Dijon mustard
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 tablespoons capers, drained and coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped small cornichons (about 6)
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound asparagus, trimmed

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a small pot of water to a simmer over medium heat. Lower eggs into water; cook 9 minutes. Transfer to ice bath; let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel and slice into rounds.
  • Whisk together vinegar, mustard, and sugar. Slowly whisk in oil, then capers, cornichons, and thyme. Season to taste.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Drizzle asparagus lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until crisp-tender and charred in places, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a platter, top with eggs, and spoon vinaigrette over top; serve.

ASPARAGUS WITH SAUCE GRIBICHE



Asparagus With Sauce Gribiche image

Sauce Gribiche is similar to an aioli or a mayonnaise sauce with chopped hard cooked eggs, capers, pickles and herbs. It is also terrific over meat or fish or even potatoes! You can substitute 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or to taste) instead of making your own. Taste and add mustard and/or vinegar, if desired. Also, use your choice of fresh herbs.

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

36 asparagus spears, trimmed
4 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and separated
1 egg (see description)
1 1/2 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard (see description)
1 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (see description)
fleur de sel (see description)
fresh ground black pepper (see description)
1/2 cup grapeseed oil (see description)
2 tablespoons capers, minced
2 tablespoons cornichons or 2 tablespoons pickles, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
1 tablespoon fresh chervil, minced
1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, minced
12 sprigs parsley or 12 sprigs chervil, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; prepare an ice water bath.
  • Cook asparagus until crisp-tender, about 4 to 5 minutes depending on size; plunge into water bath, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • Asparagus can also be pan fried, just until the tips are golden, instead of blanching.
  • Coarsely chop the egg whites and set aside; push the yolks through a sieve into a medium sized bowl.
  • Separate the egg and place the yolk into a large bowl; reserve the white for another use.
  • Whisk mustard and vinegar into the egg yolk; season with salt and pepper.
  • Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified and thickened.
  • Fold in capers, cornichons, herbs, egg whites, and egg yolks; taste and season again with salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Arrange asparagus on a serving platter, or individual plates; top with several dollops of the sauce and garnish with parsley or chervil sprigs.
  • NOTE: If substituting with mayonnaise, use about 1/2 cup of that (or more to taste) and leave out the egg entirely. Use mustard and vinegar to taste as well as the salt and pepper. Leave out the oil.
