Directions:
- Break the tough ends off the asparagus and rinse thoroughly.
- Place the asparagus in a saute pan. Add water to cover the bottom layer of asparagus. They do not need to be fully covered.
- Add the kosher salt.
- Turn the heat to high. When the water starts to boil, turn the heat to medium. Keep it at a low boil. Cook for about 2 minutes, maybe a little more or less. When a knife can pierce the thickest part of the remaining stem with ease, they are done.
- Immediately pour off the water. Taste and add more salt if necessary. Feel free to add a dash of black pepper or a splash of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. A splash of soy sauce is another alternative.
- Tip: Asparagus is best stored upright in the fridge standing in a 1/2 of water. It lasts almost a week this way.
