Directions:
- Peel lower half to two thirds of each asparagus stalk with a vegetable peeler. Cook asparagus in a wide 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, until just tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain well in a colander, then return to pot and toss with butter, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Cooks' note: Asparagus can be cooked (without butter and lemon) 1 day ahead. Drain asparagus, then immediately plunge into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain again and chill in a sealed plastic bag lined with dampened paper towels.
