Today, Eva's showing me some NEW ways to cook one of my favorite vegetables. Well, they might not be new to an Italian...

Do you have any interesting ways to cook asparagus? Let us know, we always love to have more recipes to try!

@sooz9433 Год назад

I don't have any asparagus recipes but I do have a question. Years ago I worked with a beautiful lady who was Italian and for our Christmas party she brought several recipes but one that knocked my socks off was Bagna càuda.. I couldn't stay out of it!! It was warm and the bread we were dipping was homemade and I got hooked. I haven't had it since but wondered what your take on it is and do you like it? Thank you both. You're a delight every single video!♥️

Pasta with pancetta, peas and asparagus. Spring on a plate.

@PalmSpringsPatriot Год назад

My mother’s parents were from Bovino so I am familiar with the Italian ways of preparing Asparagi and heave eaten them all my life. It’s one of my favorite veggies.

@ragazzotexano Год назад

I haven’t personally made it, but there’s a huge Vietnamese population here in Houston, and lots of their restaurants stir fry chicken with asparagus.

Lemon orzo with asparagus- same idea as risotto but with the nice slippery pasta-ness of the orzo

@diocanaja Год назад

I'm from Milan and to me, the most natural pairing with asparagus has always been eggs (excluding frittata of course cause that's everywhere in italy). A common antipasto here (when it's in season at least) is baked, pan fried or steamed asparagus served with some very soft and runny scrambled eggs made a bagnomaria and loaded with grana and butter. It's also common to add a thin egg drizzle on top of asparagus risotto, I used to think this was a common tradition all over italy (or at least in the north) but when I told people from Bergamo, literally half an hour away, they looked at me like I was from another planet and acted like asparagus with scrambled eggs was a culinary capital sin

@alexrafe2590 Год назад

I love asparagus any way you prepare it. I could never become bored by it. But I’ve never had asparagus as a component in Italian cooking. I don’t why, it seems obvious to me now. The first one with the layers of cheese topped by bread crumbs was my favourite. Your dishes made cooking with asparagus look even more fantastic. Thank you for opening my eyes🙏🏻

@zaldarion Год назад

as a german, asparagus is religion. but I prefer the white asparagus, peeled, steamed until done, with melted butter on top, pancake (very thin, more like a crepe) and ham 😭

To intensify the asparagus flavor in the risotto, I usually add the part of them you cut off to the stock.

I made the asparagus with Parmesan for a dinner party last week! I didn’t get a chance to take a photo of it because my guests were waiting but the fact that 2 lbs of asparagus was gone almost instantly attests to how good this dish is. Thank you!

@judithmetraux4535 Год назад

One of my favorite memories from childhood is eating asparagus and onion frittata sandwiches at the beach. My grandmother would always make them or zucchini and onion sandwiches if asparagus was out of season. These sandwiches were perfect beach food because they were moist and delicious! Of course they always had pecorino romano cheese in them too. My Grandmother was from Bugnara in Abruzzi and we never had any other cheese in our house. My favorite quiche is asparagus, onions, swiss cheese and bacon!

@PastaGrammar Год назад

Eva said the same thing to me about a frittata sandwich being a big beach food. I never would have imagined!

@judithmetraux4535 Год назад

@@PastaGrammar yup, take one to your next picnic and you will see the appeal!

@1014Donna Год назад

My mother was Sicilian and with the same ingredients as the frittata, she would make “ polpette.” They were first fried then put in tomato sauce like meatballs. Then we would have them as a second course to pasta. They would also appear on the table for Easter, my Nonno would make them. They were very good. I will try the frittata version!

@gingerbreadfortuna Год назад

@Jefficusmagnus Год назад

Eggs and asparagus are a match made in heaven. My favourite omlette by far is an asparagus and onion omlette. Another way of using asparagus for me is for a simple sauce for ravioli. I lightly fry bany asparagi in butter (stems before spearheads as Eva does) with some chives, and it results in a beautiful, very quick meal that looks straight out of a michelin restaurant menu

@jdane2277 Год назад

Those look great especially the alla Parmigiana. But I like asparagus so much, that steamed with just a sprinkle of flake sea salt, or roasted in olive oil is really how I do it most of the time.

@pollysshore2539 Год назад

I eat it several different ways but coated in olive oil and salt & roasted with almonds (or other nuts) is one of my favorite ways. Sometimes I add a sprinkle of cheese, but I often don’t.

White asparagus season here as well (about to end)… With good smoked thinly sliced ham and crumbled eggs, Hollandaise (🤷🏼‍♀️) sauce and melted good butter to join the new potatoes. And a little freshly grated nutmeg. It’s a party on your plate! Love from the NL 🌷🌸

My father always loved asparagus frittata! I remember my mom cooking it a lot for him for lunch, especially at springtime. As a child, I always thought it was weird, so I never tried it and now I feel like I missed out! I think I'll make it for my Dad to surprise him once spring comes around (so I can get some fresh asparagus 🤤). Thanks for the inspiration!

@user-pb6rc5be6r Год назад

Fritelle di asparagi - asparagus fritters. Boil the asparagus, dice, mix with breadcrumbs, eggs, salt, and cheese, then fry in little patties. Delicious! I imagine Eva had these (and similar with other vegetables) in Calabria. You guys should make them, and do a video on Zippuli with anchovies!

@debbybrady1246 Год назад

@karenmar1529 Год назад

I usually make the asparagus roasted with lemon, butter and parmesan but now thanks to Eva I have more recipes to try and I think my new favorite maybe the first one with breadcrumbs, cheese etc. sounds so good.

Tempura asparagus with Meyer lemon aioli is my favorite. It’s actually not that hard to make, but when I’m super lazy or I want to serve the asparagus chilled, I ditch frying & simply steam the asparagus. I also put asparagus in pasta sauces, soups & marinated salads.

This frittata looks wonderful! I’ve been in Germany when the white asparagus are in season . They revere them ! Very nice but not an overwhelming flavor . Very subtle.

@onegsoul Год назад

This was really interesting to me, and has taught me something new! When I learned to make a frittata, I was taught that it always contained sliced potatoes & whatever vegetables + cheese and was cooked on the stovetop, and that a strata was always made with bread & whatever vegetables + cheese and I thought it could be cooked either on the stovetop or in the oven. Watching you Eva, made me do some digging for clarification. Apparently it's the method of cooking that makes the difference: frittata is on the stovetop & the strata is in the oven, and does have a bread component. Potato is NOT a requirement for a frittata(!) and can include bread. THANK-YOU for helping me to learn something new! My favorite frittata is the asparagus one much like yours, but of course - until now, mine always included potato!

@sydneyaustralia1194 Год назад

Yes all the time Risotto in my family....and frittata and asparagi with bacon yummy ...

@danielaferrari1380 Год назад

I boile asparagus in salted water, cut off the tips and keep 'em aside. Then i make a cream in the blender with ricotta (cow ricotta for a sweeter cream, sheep ricotta for a saltier flavour) and the boiled asparagus. Then i add the cream to the pasta (penne for the sweet cream or bucatini for the flavoured one) [mantecando il tutto]. When served i add the asparagus' tips to every plate. Cheers from Modena.

@dale1956ties Месяц назад

My mother (full blooded Sicilian) used to make that same asparagus frittata only she didn't cut up the asparagus, and she cooked inn a pan on the stove top. I don't know why I never considered cutting it. It's such a simple thing and makes it so much easier to eat.

@vstier1 Год назад

When I was a child I didn’t like asparagus unless it was in a frittata! But I’ve never seen the one Eva made! That looked delicious! And when Eva said to put in a panini, I thought my heart would stop! My favorite thing is frittata in bread! 😂 thank you Eva for these recipes! Love love love!!!

@alessandro8674 Год назад

Ciao Eva, prova a frullare la parte di asparagi che scarti in un litro di acqua e poi usa l’acqua calda (filtrata) per il risotto, senza altra verdura. Ne guadagna il sapore e il risotto acquisirà un colore verde chiaro particolarmente gradevole. Le punte le puoi cuocere direttamente dentro il risotto, 3-4 minuti prima di spengere il fuoco. Rimarranno croccanti e contrasteranno il morbido del risotto. Il resto della ricetta è come la fai te. Ti consiglio vivamente di provare i pici toscani con guanciale, pecorino e asparagi. Taglia il guanciale come se dovessi fare la gricia, friggi, leva il guanciale fritto e nell’olio del guanciale cuoci gli asparagi a pezzettini. Cala i pici In acqua bollente e scolali al dente dentro la salta pasta con gli asparagi cotti nell’olio. Manteca la pasta con il pecorino e un po’ di acqua di pasta per fare la crema e infine aggiungi i pezzettini croccanti di guanciale. qui a Roma abbiamo cominciato a diffonderla ed è una libidine.
