Aye, asparagus is lovely. Dried porcini mushrooms as a base and various
sautéed fresh ones on top are delicious too. Pumpkin, sage, pancetta;
broccoli, bacon, mushrooms; asparagus, lemon, scallops. So many combos to
try, so little time. There there's the different cheese: blues, wash rinds,
parmesans and breadcrumbs for the seafood ones, (if you insist on remaining
true to that silly tradition). And the herbs...
