Asparagus is neither hard nor toughā¦itās soft as butter, then diced ham, new potatoes and asparagus sauce made from roux, the asparagus water and an egg yolkā¦just deliciousā¦ 
Well it jolly well was when I had it, let me tell you!

I realise itās how one goes about cooking it, which makes all the difference though, of course.
Cooking is actually not a great art. I simply boil the asparagus in lightly salted water for about 15-20 minutes. The longer it cooks, the softer it gets, but too soft isnāt good either.
It is actually important that it was peeled well, because the peel remains hard even when cooking and does not taste good. I always cook the peel separately and then use the water to make the sauce.

I thought John78 was the only one who tracked participantsā periods. I guess you learn something new every day. You guys should start a club or something. 
i know it from her, because that is the time to take good care and be very sensitive to her, otherwise bad things happen
