Serves: 1
 

Ingredients:

2 Pounds asparagus -- washed, ends
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 Cup butter
4 Ounces hazel nuts (filberts) -- finely chopped
2 Teaspoons tarragon wine vinegar
 

Preparation:

Steam the asparagus over slated water until crisp-tender and drain well. Reserve and keep warm. Melt the butter in a small saucepan and when it is hot, but not yet brown, add the chopped nuts. Cook and stir just until the nuts are light brown, about one minute. Add the vinegar; there will be a loud hissing. Stir once more and serve immediately over the warm asparagus.
