Directions:
Choose thick spears of asparagus. Align the asparagus at the tip end in a straight line. Creating pieces of equal size, cut away about 1 inch of the tough stalk end. Steam the asparagus, standing up in a tall covered pot or in a shorter pot with a hood created from aluminum foil. Steam in water that has a depth of about 1 inch. Steam for 5 minutes or until tender. Rinse immediately in ice water.
