Recipe Ingredients:
1 lb Asparagus, fresh spears
3 tbsp Pine nuts
1/4 cup Olive oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice, fresh
1 Clove garlic, crushed
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Basil, dried whole

The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’." | | ~ John Thorne, American food writer |
