1 lb Asparagus, fresh spears 1/2 ts Salt
3 tb Pine nuts 1/2 ts Basil, dried whole
1/4 c Olive oil 1/2 ts Oregano, dried whole

Snap off tough ends of asparagus. Remove scales from stalks with knife or
vegetable peeler, if desired. Place spears in a steaming rack over boiling
water; cover and steam 4-5 minutes or until spears are crisp-tender.

blend. Cook over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until thoroughly heated,
stirring constantly. Pour over asparagus. Sprinkle with pine nuts. Let
stand to room temperature before serving.
