ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOMS IN LEMON-THYME BUTTER

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute asparagus and mushrooms in butter and oil until tender. Stir in remaining ingredients.

ASPARAGUS-MUSHROOM SAUTé WITH CREAM

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add mushrooms to the pan in an even layer. Sear, stirring a few times, until the moisture from the mushrooms has evaporated and the edges begin to crisp, 1-2 minutes. (If the pan seems dry as the mushrooms cook, add remaining ½ tablespoon oil.) Add the shallots and thyme; stir to coat and cook, 1 minute. Add asparagus and a pinch of salt, and continue cooking until the asparagus are bright green and slightly soft, 1-2 minutes depending on asparagus size.
• Add sherry and swirl the pan until the liquid has reduced by ¾. Add heavy cream and let it reduce until it has thickened slightly, 2 minutes. Stir in one tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of porcini butter, and continue sautéing until the sauce coats the vegetables, 1 more minute. Turn off heat. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if necessary, and finish with lemon juice. Serve immediately. Porcini Butter: In a small saucepan combine mushrooms with just enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook on low heat for 45 minutes. Mushrooms should be soft, with a bit of liquid in the pan. Purée mushrooms and remaining liquid with butter until smooth. Transfer to a lidded container and refrigerate until ready to use. Porcini butter can be stored in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks and in the freezer up to 3 months.

ASPARAGUS, MUSHROOM AND TOMATO BAKE WITH SEASONED CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Cover a baking pan or cookie sheet with foil (for easy cleanup).
• Drizzle the olive oil over the mushrooms and asparagus and gently toss to coat them.
• Put the mushrooms in the center of the pan; arrange the asparagus on both sides of the mushrooms with tips pointing in both directions on both sides of the mushrooms; reserve the tomatoes at this point.
• Bake the mushrooms and asparagus in the oven for about 15-20 minutes.
• Scatter the tomatoes over top of asparagus; drizzling a touch of olive oil over the top of the tomatoes.
• Sprinkle a touch of sea salt over top of tomatoes and asparagus and bake for approximately another 10 minutes. Make sure to check your asparagus and mushrooms to desired tenderness.
• For the sauce:
• Pour the milk into a medium sized saucepan.
• Make an 'ornament' with the onion, bay leaf and clove by using the clove to pierce the bay leaf and then poke the bay leaf into the onion; add your 'ornament' to the milk in the saucepan.
• Warm the milk gently over low heat, to infuse the flavors, until it just begins to boil; cover and let rest for about 15 minutes or so while you follow the next step.
• In another medium saucepan melt the butter over low heat; mix in the flour and cook for a couple of minutes stirring constantly.
• Add the milk to the butter/flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time; cook and stir until all the milk has been added.
• For a stronger flavor in your sauce you can add the onion from the milk mixture at this point.
• Cook over low heat until thick, about 20-25 minutes; stirring occasionally so it doesn't burn on the bottom.
• Once the sauce has thickened remove the onion, and add salt and pepper to taste; leaving the sauce over very low heat.
• Stir in the cream (if using) to give a silky texture to the sauce. You don't have to use it all depending on the thickness of your sauce; keeping in mind the cheese will also thicken the sauce further.
• Add the mustard and cheese to the sauce until the cheese is melted; BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO LET BOIL!. The cheese will separate and it will not look appealing.
• Drizzle the Cheese Sauce over top of the baked vegetables and serve.
