So far, we've eaten it plain steamed, in an crab-and-asparagus quiche, sliced raw with sweet onions and a vinaigrette as a salad, and chopped with a little red bell pepper in scrambled eggs. Tonight or tomorrow will be cream of asparagus soup. Mixed grilled veggies is on the list. (And the afore-photo'd asparagus and hard-boiled eggs in crepes, with Hollandaise sauce, right out of my 1976 Crepe Cookery cookbook and photographed with light like they must have used in the cookbook photo back in the day.) -- Silvar Beitel |

See my reply to Boron. The photo from the cookbook: <http://i1196.photobucket.com/albums/aa407/Silvar_Beitel/RFC/IMG_0225_1_zpssb0o9xig.jpg> I guess I forgot the paprika. :-) I'm *assuming* it was popular back in the day. Crepes were sort of an "elegant" "French" food to Midwesterners (USA) then. -- Silvar Beitel |

I sometimes think about crepes. :) I posted this a few years ago: "I used to make savory creamed chicken with mushrooms crepes. I haven't thought about that in years. Might have to dig out my recipe! Crepes are dead easy. I also used to make cheese-stuffed manicotti, not with cooked tube pasta shells but with filled crepes. I learned that trick from Jeff Smith's (The Frugal Gourmet) first book." Same concept, crepes and The Frug's version of manicotti. Oh, and a further comment: "Stack them separated by waxed paper or parchment paper, then wrap them tightly and freeze them. They are easy to separate. If you only want to thaw a few crepes at a time, there they are." :) As for asparagus crepes, I do believe gloria p mentioned them: "Asparagus crepes (with or without ham) topped with Hollandaise!" :D Jill |

That said, his reaction was typical of his MO: 1. Demands to see pictures and claims the poster is making it all up if there are none. 2. Expects food magazine quality photos and nitpicks everything when pictures and/or ingredients don't live up to his fictional standards. -- sf |

I remember that post and tried them. I personally didn't like manicotti that way. YMMV. :) I just really like pasta if I'm going to make something like that. -- ღ.¸¸.œ«*¨`*œ¶ Cheryl |
