Roasted Asparagus w Bitters Mayonnaise

[donotprint]It’s Spring!  Time to indulge in asparagus, and time to try something new. The vegetables for this tasty side dish can be cooked in an iron frying pan, or on a stovetop griddle, on the barbecue, or roasted in the oven. Because I prefer “cooking simply”, I go the stovetop route. But I will never sacrifice flavor. That’s where my love affair with Angostura bitters comes in. It is a flavor game changer. Really.[/donotprint]

Roasted Vegetables with Angostura Mayonnaise Drizzle

(or simply… Angostura Mayonnaise  See bottom of page) *

Angostura Mayonnaise Drizzle for Roasted Vegetables
1/2    cup mayonnaise
2       Tbsp. grated pecorino Romano cheese or tangy Parmesan
1       Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1       tsp. grated lemon peel
1       tsp. Angostura aromatic bitters

Whisk together mayonnaise, grated cheese, lemon juice, lemon peel, and 1/2 to 1 tsp. Angostura bitters; set aside.  Note: If you have not used Angostura bitters in food before, start with 1/2 teaspoon in the mayonnaise. Taste, then stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon if desired.

Roasted Vegetables
1 – 2   lbs. asparagus, green beans, or broccoli rabe
1/4    cup olive oil
2       Tbsp. soy sauce
1        Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1        tsp. Angostura aromatic bitters

Rinse vegetables and drain well. Break off tough ends from asparagus. Remove stems from green beans. Whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, 1 Tbsp. lemon juice and 1 tsp. Angostura bitters. Brush liberally on vegetables; let stand 15 minutes.

Heat a large iron fry pan over medium heat. Place vegetables in pan in a single a layer. Cook about 5 minutes or until lightly browned. (The time depends on how thick the vegetables are.) Turn and cook 3-5 minutes more or until tender. Cook in two or three batches, as needed. To serve, warm up Angostura mayonnaise in microwave for just 15-30 seconds; stir well. Drizzle over hot vegetables. Garnish with lemon peel.

* Like mayonnaise?!
Make the mayonnaise only, do not warm it up though, and use it as a dipping sauce for fresh veggies (photo below).  And/or use it in sandwiches instead of plain mayonnaise. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for weeks, well covered.

Do your recipes turn out just like the photos? Do Do your recipes turn out just like the photos? Do you care or wonder what the developer did different? Or do you think it was fancy food styling and photography? There’s lots of reasons —like different pans, ingredients vary, your whipped eggs may turn out a little different than mine because they are fresher, older, different hens.... and on and on. I hope you don’t get discouraged when images aren’t the same as your results, and you can see by mine, even when it IS my recipe there are variations. The cake on the plate is gluten free, and didn’t bake as golden as the flour version. (And my oven is currrently on the fritz, believe it or not! 😂)

Sure happy to have this recipe in my repertoire. P Sure happy to have this recipe in my repertoire. Perfect after a day of baking, biking, gardening, and escaping into a good book on the sofa by the fire.  Recipe inspired by  @cheflauriegauguin. We spice it up with a smear of hoisin sauce on a Trader Joe’s Carb Savvy whole wheat tortilla to wrap it all up.
If you want to know, the book is The Knitting Circle by @annhood56

Make these once and I’m pretty sure you’ll kee Make these once and I’m pretty sure you’ll keep raw cashews on-hand always. Or try with another nut, and let me know which you like best. My gift to you is the recipe below 🙂
Original recipe @leitesculinaria and @inagarten but I first enjoyed it from @mmfooddrink. 🙏 this recipe has been a gift that keeps giving 😂. 
Merry Christmas!

Rosemary Roasted Cashews
 
Heat oven to 350°F
 
Spread 1 pound raw whole cashews on a baking sheet (I usually line sheet with parchment). Bake for 15-20 minutes turning several times until toasted a deep golden brown.
 
Meanwhile, in a large bowl,  microwave 1 tablespoon salted butter until melted.
Stir in:
one rounded tablespoon very finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon packed dark or light brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
 
Add hot cashews to bowl as soon as they are toasted.  Stir and stir until cashews are cool and coated with herb mixture.  Stirring while the nuts are hot is the trick. Cool completely in the bowl.
