    | 1. Trim the ends of the asparagus. | 2. Using a sharp paring knife, peel each spear so that the tender part is exposed. | 3. When done, the spear should be pale green with the same thickness from stem to tip. | 4. Tie the spears in bundles of 6 or 7 each and lay the bundles flat in an oblong pot. | 5. Cover with salted water and bring to a boil. | 6. Lower the heat and simmer about 12 minutes for young spears and 16 to 18 minutes for thick spears. | 7. Asparagus should be tender but not limp. | 8. When a knife easily penetrates the stems, the asparagus is done. | 9. Drain and blot on a linen towel, place the bundles on a hot platter and remove the strings. | 10. Sprinkle with cheese and dot with butter. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
