Servings: 4
Ingredients: 

  • 32    Asparagus spears

Trim and blanch asparagus until tender and stop the cooking by immersing
in cold water. Drain and reserve. Soak porcini in stock or water. Bring
to a boil and reduce volume to 1/4 cup. Strain. In blender, combine
balsamic vinegar and the mushroom soaking water. Emulsify oil into base
and season with salt and pepper. Steam asparagus for 1 minute to rewarm

Saute morels in butter until they release their juices. Increase heat
and saute 2-3 minutes. Toss morels in 2/3 of the vinaigrette. Divide
among the spears and drizzle a little vinaigrette around each.
