"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |

| Henry Miller, American writer (1891-1980) |
Snap ends off asparagus spears. Fill medium skillet with 1-inch
water and bring to a boil. Add asparagus in single layer and cook 8
to 10 minutes or until tender. Drain well and arrange on a serving
plate. Stir together vinegar and oil in sm bowl. Add blue cheese and
chives and mix well. Pour over hot asparagus. Season to taste with
plenty of white pepper. Set aside until tepid, then serve.
Hint on cleaning asparagus: Hold the bottom end of the stem in one
hand and gently bend the stalk with the other. The stalk will break
where it is tender, thus giving you a piece of asparagus that is
entirely edible. With a little practice you will know exactly where
to break the vegetable. Save the broken-off ends for soups. Slice and
add to soup stock, then drain and discard the coarse stalks before
serving.
