Roasted Asparagus

Salty and savory, the roasting method kills the natural bitterness of asparagus. For a simple side dish, try Ina Garten’s Roasted Asparagus from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network; the recipe uses only asparagus, olive oil, salt and pepper.

Instructions

  1. Oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
