ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY LEEKS AND CAPERS
In this supremely springy recipe, thick asparagus stalks and thinly sliced leeks are glossed with olive oil and covered in salty capers. Everything is roasted in the same pan and emerges tender and golden-edged. Capers also make an appearance in the mustard sauce served alongside, which adds a tangy, mayonnaise-like richness. You can double the recipe, if you wish, though you may have to increase the roasting time by a few minutes to make up for a more-crowded pan. Serve this on its own as a first course, or as an accompaniment to roast chicken, braised meats or seared fish. Just don't use thin asparagus: It'll cook too quickly, before the leeks have a chance to turn golden. Stick with spears that are at least 1/2 inch in diameter.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Put asparagus on a rimmed sheet pan and toss with 1 tablespoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well coated.
- In a small bowl, stir together leeks, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle leeks on top of asparagus, then sprinkle with capers. Roast until asparagus are tender and golden brown, about 12 to 18 minutes.
- While the asparagus stalks roast, make the mustard sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, capers and garlic. Slowly whisk in olive oil a few drops at a time to create a thick, emulsified dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once asparagus stalks are out of the oven, squeeze a lemon wedge over it and sprinkle parsley on top. Serve with mustard sauce and more lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Put egg in a small pot and cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil. Turn off the heat and set a timer for 11 minutes. When the timer dings, transfer the egg to a small bowl of ice water.
- While the egg cooks and chills, prep the asparagus. Snap the woody ends off the bottom of the asparagus spears and discard. Lay asparagus on a baking sheet. Zest the lemon over the asparagus. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze its juice and drizzle the olive oil over the asparagus. Toss to coat. Season with several cracks of black pepper and a few pinches of salt.
- Roast the asparagus for 5 minutes. Scatter the capers over the asparagus and continue to roast until the asparagus is just tender with a little firmness to the bite (another 3 to 5 minutes). The time will vary depending on the thickness of the spears. Cutting a small piece off the bottom of a stalk is one sure way to test for doneness, keeping in mind it will continue to cook a little after it's out of the oven.
- Transfer the asparagus and capers to a serving plate. Finish with pinch of fleur-de-sel or other salt to taste. Peel the egg and use the large holes of a box grater to grate it over the center of the center of the spears. Serve warm.

ASPARAGUS WITH ANCHOVIES AND CAPERS
This is a common springtime dish in Italy and in a neighboring region of Croatia, Istria, where it's made with wild asparagus that is thinner than a pencil. If you can find thin spears at your farmers' market, use them. The recipe is inspired by a dish in Carol Field's "Italy in Small Bites."

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH BUTTERED ALMONDS, CAPERS AND DILL
Cooking asparagus is one of the easiest kitchen tasks around. There is almost no preparation, the asparagus is roasted plain in the oven, and all that's left to do is fry some almonds and capers to spoon on top. This can be served as part of a festive spread of salads and seasonal dips. It also works well as a side for meat, fish or grain dishes.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit/220 degrees Celsius. Line a baking sheet (baking tray) with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl or on a work surface, use your hands or tongs to toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon oil, a generous pinch of salt and a good grind of pepper. Arrange asparagus in the paper-lined pan, spaced well apart, and roast, shaking the pan occasionally, until asparagus is soft and starting to brown in places, 8 to 12 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove from oven and set aside in the pan.
- In a small or medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until foamy. Add almonds and fry, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes (reduce heat as needed to prevent scorching). Pour almonds and butter evenly over asparagus.
- Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the pan and heat over high heat. Once hot, add the capers and fry, stirring continuously, until they have opened up and become crisp, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove capers from the oil and sprinkle over the asparagus. Add dill. Using tongs or two spoons, mix gently to combine, transfer to a large plate and serve warm.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER
Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.
