Note to self: asparagus & horseradish do not mix.

I love vegetables and I’m always looking for new, easy ways to prepare them. Especially things that I can remember easily and don’t have to follow an exact recipe.

I tried a variation on an Epicurious recipe last night, and it was so bitter it was rather awful.

Steam 2 lbs. fresh asparagus for about 6 min (until tender crisp).

Mix 2.5 tbsp softened unsalted butter with 1.5 tbsp drained refrigerated horseradish.

Dry asparagus, add to frying pan, toss with horseradish butter, and saute on high heat for about 3 minutes.

Yuck!
