Star Ingredient: Da Rosario White Truffle FondueTruffle fondue (white-truffle-infused cheeses mixed with butter) quickly turns asparagus into a superluxe starter or side dish. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons (1 ounce) unsalted butter |
2 tablespoons minced shallots |
1 pound pencil-thin asparagus |
salt and freshly ground pepper |
1/4 cup white truffle fondue (from a 3.5 ounce jar) |
1 teaspoon minced tarragon |
Directions:
1. Preheat the broiler and position an oven rack 8 inches from the heat. Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the minced shallots and cook over moderately high heat until barely softened, about 1 minute. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender and lightly browned in spots, about 5 minutes. 2. Transfer the asparagus to a medium gratin dish and spread the truffle fondue over them. Broil until golden and bubbling, shifting the dish for even browning, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with the tarragon and serve. |
