Bruce seems to have something against asparagus in general, as well as
any form of corn.  I'm not sure what Bruce actually eats since all he
does is disparage any mention of food on a cooking ng.  I do think
vegetables kept warm on a steam table over sterno would probably be nasty.

I don't disparagus anything except steamed asparagus. That's such a

Steamed isn't horrible.  But it does make one realize why there
are so many ways to dress up steamed asparagus.  The French are
particularly adept at that.

I'm sure you can make it taste good by adding things to it. But if you
pan fry it, it already tastes good on its own.

Same thing with grilling or roasting.  Dry heat is best for somewhat
watery vegetables like asparagus, cauliflower, and cabbage.
