Asparagus can be prepared in lots of different ways; our favorite way that we tried was baking it. You might not like baked asparagus, so here are some of the different ways you can cook asparagus. The first way you can try is roasting, which brings out a tender texture with slightly browned, crisp edges and enhances its natural flavors. Grilling adds a smoky flavor and a bit of crunch, perfect for outdoor cooking, while pan-frying is quick and easy, delivering a rich, flavorful taste with crisp edges and a tender interior. For a lighter option, you can steam asparagus, which preserves its vibrant color and delicate flavor while maintaining its nutrients. Another method is sautéing, where you cook it quickly in a little oil or butter, resulting in a tender yet slightly caramelized texture. You can also blanch asparagus by briefly boiling it and then plunging it into ice water to stop the cooking process, which keeps it crisp and bright. No matter how you choose to cook it, you will always end up with a delicious outcome!

Recipe Review: Asparagus noodles With Parmesan Cheese

We got the recipe from a girl on TikTok named Suzy. The instructions were super easy to follow. First, we washed and trimmed the ends of the asparagus, then started peeling it into spaghetti-like strands. This was the only frustrating part because it took the most time and patience, the asparagus kept breaking, and it ended up looking more like rigatoni pasta than spaghetti.

Next, we sautéed the garlic in 2 tablespoons of olive oil for one minute, then added the asparagus to the skillet and cooked it for about 2–3 minutes. By this part of the cooking process, it already smelled and looked so tasty. While it was in the pan, we added garlic powder, salt, Italian seasoning, and a little cayenne pepper to give it a little kick.

After 2–3 minutes, we plated it and topped it with grated Parmesan cheese. It smelled like heaven, we were so excited to try it! The dish turned out light and slightly spicy. The asparagus still had a nice crunch, and the Parmesan gave it a creamy, salty flavor.

We gave some to other groups to try some people loved it, while others thought it was too spicy. Overall, though, it would make a great side dish or even a main course like we made it. You should definitely try it out!
