Mrs Crocombe is back! She's been busy preparing an unusual recipe using one of her favourite vegetables: asparagus. Asparagus grows naturally between April and June, but at Audley End House, they like to extend the season and enjoy this delicate vegetable all year round.

INGREDIENTS
For the rolls...
Water
Milk
250g (9oz) Flour
7g (0.2oz) Yeast
1tbsp Lard
A generous pinch of salt
For the filling...
50-60 asparagus spears, preferably slender
300ml (½ pint) whole milk
2 egg yolks
A pinch of nutmeg
Cayenne pepper
Freshly ground black pepper
Grated parmesan cheese
2 tsp corn flour (optional) to stabilise
METHOD
Make 12 small rolls in muffin tins using a mixture of half water, half milk. Set aside to cool.
Trim your asparagus, removing the tough woody bottom ends.
Tie the stems together in bunches and boil in water for 2-3 minutes, until cooked but still stiff.
Let the stems cool, then carefully cut to length to fit in your buns with 2-3cm protruding.
Combine the filling ingredients (except the cheese) to make your custard, whisk well.
Add the cornflour for stability.
Heat the custard until just boiling and allow to thicken, then stir in the cheese.
Neatly cut the tops off your buns, scoop out the crumb and fill with your custard filling.
Arrange the asparagus tops in the custard.
Serve tepid, chilled, or brush with a little butter before reheating in the oven to serve.

FAQs - Here are the answers to some questions you may have about this recipe, from our food historian. I'm terrible at custard, how can I make sure it thickens? Fear not! Add 1 heaped tablespoon of cornflour to your mix, whisk it well, and then bring to the boil very gently. The cornflour will stop the eggs from curdling. Simmer until it thickens. Did spices really come ready ground in Mrs Crocombe's day? Rarely, but Mrs Crocombe had a staff of maids - such as Mary-Ann - to help her with the more menial tasks. Should I cut or snap my asparagus? Asparagus will snap where you bend it. When you are preparing it, it's better to cut it, feeling the stem for where it ceases to be woody and tough. You can see that Mrs Crocombe does exactly this. Usually that's where the stem turns green from the pinky-white flesh underneath. What can I use the asparagus trimmings for? The woody bits are best composted. When you are trimming the cooked spears to fit the rolls, you can use the offcuts to mince and put into the sauce, or in any other asparagus dish. What cheese can I use? You can use any flavourful cheese. Mrs Crocombe uses parmesan, but a Cheshire or a gruyere style cheese would also work well. Can I use bought rolls? Yes, by all means, but try to get yeast-risen ones, not Chorleywood process rolls, as they will be soft and too fluffy. You can easily make your own though. If you do bake your own, cover them with a damp tea towel after removing from the oven to keep the crust soft and workable. Lard in the rolls?! Yes, but you can also use butter. This is a strange recipe, but it's quite venerable, and dates to the 18th century when it was normally done with cinnamon and not cheese. Some recipes even call for you to poke holes in the lids of the rolls and poke the spears out through them! Got other questions? Leave us a comment and we'll do our best to respond!

@Nannaof10 Год назад

In USA we call "corn flour" corn starch. Cornmeal is not going to work well in a custard 👍

@margotmolander5083 Год назад

If I were to try I would tip it over sideways and cut off the tall bits of asparagus and then slice into the roll/custard, then make a bite with all three bits. Which I'm sure is the completely wrong way to do it by the standards of the time!

@xr6lad Год назад

Thought (and my partner)) the same. They said maybe take the asparagus out, cut up with the knife and dip in the sauce with your fork then pull the remaining bread up between knife and fork to eat. Me personally think we could lose the bread rolls (seems a bit heavy) and just present the spears on a plate with the sauce poured over them.

My Mom I both same all bread ends, bread that is starting to mold(cut all off), then add to a large scrap bag in the freezer. When there's enough... throw them into a food processor... put Back into the bag. The crumbs can be used for throwing into meatloaf, add to flour for coating say, chicken(would recommend lightly toasting them. OR.... mix some savory herbs w/olive oil (or vegetable oil if that's all u have).... coat the bread... toast in oven... process to crumbs in food processor. Toasted & fully dried out... they can b put in a plastic container along side your flour etc... add a small scoop to it... and their handy to throw into or On Top of. Neither my Mother Or I can stand to WASTE things... especially food... we have to find ways to use it! lol

I feel sorry for all the other women who play Mrs. Crocombe, having to face visitors who are disappointed at not meeting "THE" Mrs. Crocombe. It's the same as being an understudy or swing in the theatre. You're every bit as talented (if not more so, because you may be prepared to cover several roles, at a moment's notice) as the performer you're subbing for, but, to the audience, you're "not good enough" to be in the role full-time.

@AP-pl5rv Год назад

Okay, I made these, but I admit I changed it up a bit. I added two kinds of cheese to the custard and also topped with bacon. I also used rolls that would lie flat and hollowed them out like boats. So in the hollows I put custard, shredded cheese, bacon and then topped with the asparagus spears. Warmed in the oven and brushed with butter. I also confess, I added a bit of salt to the custard after it was done. Let me tell you these are so good! I ate them cold or warm for the next few days and they were so scrumptious. I do recommend and they'd be great just as Mrs. Crocombe makes them too. I added bacon cause I wanted sort of a meal in one. Thank you for this recipe!

Hiya. I was brought up being told/taught that 'snapping' was simply an indication of freshness, that's all. That is, if the end DOESN'T snap off cleanly, remaining attached in some way or being a stringy break, then the asparagus is more than 2 days old. You don't have to 'snap' every piece in your bunch to find out, the first piece you try will tell you. Then you can move to prepping with a knife. Stay safe. All the best to you.

I suddenly want some asparagus, those look tasty 😋. It's always wonderful when we hear from Mrs. Crocombe and hey, let's give it up for the Mary Anne cameo !

"But here at Audley End House, we like to extend the season.." Even the season is in her control. Mrs. Crocombe's flexing like a God! 😎😎

I love the actress who portrays Mary Anne in this video, her facial expressions and body language makes her endearing and hilarious! She is a great foil to Mrs Crocombe! XD
