REBECCA'S ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND APPLE SLAW



Rebecca's Roasted Asparagus and Apple Slaw image

Rebecca made if for me and I was astonished with the results. I would have never dared to do it this way due to my French background. According to Rebecca when you roast them it does kill the bitterness of the asparagus. Rebecca knows a lot of things....just ask her about what's going on in the world and she will tell you... She also is my hair stylish. "Only your hair stylish knows"... OH! she also is a Realtor/Broker I just said, ask her anything!! Her coleslaw is just so refreshing and pretty GOURMET if I may say...the apples make a crunchy taste of "je ne sais quoi"?

ROASTED ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH BERRIES AND RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE



Roasted Asparagus Salad With Berries and Raspberry Vinaigrette image

From the Dole Company-as found on a bunch of fresh asparagus spears. (Yep, I played around with the recipe.) The original recipe uses bottled raspberry dressing. Roasting the asparagus brings out the delicious flavor, whereas steaming seems to make it soggy, in my opinion. When shopping for asparagus look for spears with stalks that are uniform in size and leaves that are tightly close, indicating freshness.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION SALAD



Roasted Asparagus and Scallion Salad image

In this hearty, many-textured salad, soft, roasted asparagus is tossed with chewy whole grains and crisp, sweet caramelized scallions. You can use freekeh or farro here for the grains. Both are whole-wheat kernels, but the freekeh has a slightly smoky note from being toasted, while the farro is nuttier-tasting. You can prepare the freekeh or farro ahead and let it marinate in the dressing for up to six hours, but it's best to roast the asparagus and scallions within an hour of serving. Don't use pecorino Romano here, it's too sharp. If you can't find a young pecorino, use a young manchego or even a nice Cheddar, and serve this as a light main course or a salad course to a more substantial meal.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weekday, salads and dressings, main course, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt, as needed
1/4 cup freekeh or farro
2 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 small garlic clove, grated on a Microplane or minced
Fine sea salt and black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
1 bunch asparagus (1 pound), woody ends trimmed
1 bunch scallions (about 5 ounces), halved lengthwise and crosswise to form 2-inch-long ribbons
3 ounces (3 cups) salad greens, such as baby arugula
Pecorino Rossellino or other young sheep's milk cheese, as needed (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a small pot of heavily salted water to a boil, stir in freekeh or farro, cover, and simmer until al dente, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, and pinch salt and pepper. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons oil, whisking constantly.
  • Drain freekeh and stir immediately into dressing while still warm.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Spread asparagus and scallions over a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle liberally with oil, 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then arrange in a single layer. Roast until they start to char in spots, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly: The asparagus are best while still a little warm but not hot enough to wilt the greens.
  • Toss salad greens in the bowl with freekeh and dressing until leaves are coated, and transfer to serving platter. Top with roasted asparagus and scallions, shave cheese over salad if you like, and serve.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH FRIED SAGE



Roasted Asparagus Salad with Fried Sage image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 27m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds fresh asparagus
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt
1 cup vegetable or olive oil, for frying
30 fresh medium sage leaves, patted dry
1 wedge (2 ounces) Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Zest of 1 lemon, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped sage
1/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • Trim bottom of asparagus spears at point where they turn pale and tough. If spears are medium to thick, peel lower two thirds of the trimmed spears with sharp vegetable peeler. Thin spears needn't be peeled. Place them in a bowl, add chopped sage, olive oil and a light sprinkle of salt and toss lightly. Spread asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast until the spears are slightly limp -- 4 to 8 minutes depending on their thickness. Remove from oven and let cool. Heat olive oil in a 1 1/2 to 2 quart saucepan to 330 degrees. Drop in half of the sage leaves and turn them in the oil with a wire skimmer or slotted spoon. Fry for only 10 to 15 seconds, do not let the leaves brown. Then remove them to paper towels to drain. Fry the remaining sage leaves and sprinkle them all lightly with salt. They should crisp when they cool. The sage can be fried up to 1 day ahead of time -- store in airtight container at room temperature. Shave the Parmigiano cheese into thin curls. For the dressing, combine lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped sage, salt, pepper in a small mixing bowl, whisk in the oil. When ready to serve, toss asparagus with the dressing in a large bowl. Arrange the dressed asparagus on a serving platter, sprinkle with Parmigiano curls and with the fried sage leaves.

THE BEST ROASTED ASPARAGUS



The Best Roasted Asparagus image

The perfect roasted asparagus should be lightly browned and tender, yet bright green and crisp. Roasting the spears at a high temperature helps achieve this. We also browned grated Parmesan to make a nutty, crumbly frico topping. Wait until ready to serve to top the vegetables so the crisped cheese stays crunchy.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound thin asparagus, trimmed
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Juice of 1/4 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
  • Put the asparagus, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Toss to coat evenly. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned and tender, but still bright green.
  • Meanwhile, spread the Parmesan evenly in the bottom of a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook undisturbed until the cheese melts, sticks together and turns golden brown, about 2 minutes, then flip with a rubber spatula and cook until golden on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the frico to a wire rack-lined baking sheet to cool completely, about 2 minutes. Break the frico into small crumbles and put in a small bowl. Add the lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and toss to combine.
  • Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the top. Top with the crumbled frico mixture.
