This Sauteed Asparagus with Melted Gorgonzola and Pine Nuts tasted amazing |
(For Phase One Fridays I highlight Phase One recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites. This recipe was first posted in 2006 as part of Asparagus Aspirations at Seriously Good, sponsored by blogger Kevin Weeks. Kevin passed away last week, and I'm dedicating this recipe to his memory. His insight and cooking expertise were something he shared freely with many people, and he will be greatly missed.)
When I first made this recipe in 2006, I said "At the risk of sounding like I'm completely lacking in modesty, let me say that this was one of the best tasting things I've ever eaten in my life!" Now years later this is still one of my favorite ways to cook asparagus, even after I lightened it up a tiny bit from the original recipe. I'm still on a bit of an asparagus binge around here, and when I made this to take new photos I ate about half of it for lunch that day. You can see the original picture after the step-by-step photos, and if you're joining my asparagus binge you'll find lots more ideas for cooking asparagus after the recipe.
