Asparagus Season Approaches

This morning on CBS, Martha Stewart had a food segment where she prepared steamed asparagus and then created a classic tea sandwich with softened cream cheese on thinly sliced white bread. Crusts trimmed. The piece was about the renewed popularity of tea time and while I do enjoy tea, the sandwich got my attention…but def not a fan of Wonder bread-ish loaves. Maybe super soft marbled rye.

Asparagus season will end over the next week or so, in southwestern Ontario. I picked up one of my last bunches of local asparagus yesterday.

His soft-boiled egg with avocado, chorizo and asparagus over a socca flatbread is so good.

Today I got the last (we think) of Tamales Hernandez’s fresh asparagus tamales. Two for dinner, a few for this week, and the rest frozen. Man these are good, James Beard good.

At one time I made various tamales, I loved the roasted poblanos with goat cheese the most.
