break off the ends ( about 1-1 1/2 inch) of the asparagus. wash and place them in a pot of water. bring the water to a boil. cook for 2 minutes. remove the asparagus, using tongs, from the boiling water. then run the asparagus under COLD water(do not let your faucet be on full power). this will prevent further cooking. makes sure the asparagus are cooled. then place them on a plate and put them in the frig. do not cover. when you are ready to eat the asparagus then place your desired portion on a small plate. heat for 25-30 seconds. then top them with grated Parmesan cheese. microwave again for 20 to 25 seconds. instead of the Parmesan cheese you could use hollandaise sauce. the remainder of asparagus leave on the original plate and loosely wrap with saran wrap. place back in the frig.


if you are going to eat the asparagus immediately, then using tongs, place the desired amount on your plate. sprinkle grated Parmesan or spread warm hollandaise sauce over the asparagus.


note: cooking time was for medium size asparagus. thin asparagus will take 30 seconds less and thick asparagus will take 30 seconds more in time.


enjoy!
