Wrap in bacon ala candy cane style securing with toothpicks, then grill until the bacon is as crisp as you like it.

Does raw asparagus really soak up any of that dressing? I've marinated cooked asparagus for a salad in the house vinaigrette from Maison Lacour, which is perfect for asparagus.

Whenever I backslide and soak something in eye-talian dressing, I always hide the empty bottle in the bottom of the trash can.

Make asparagus fans with mustard sauce like Jaques Pepin does in this video and it will pair perfectly with your salmon. Saw it on TV last week and have made it 3x since. It's awesome. Skip to 5:11 in the video... Jaques Pepin Asparagus Fans with Mustard Sauce

In general, a pound usually serves 3-4, but it depends on what else you're having. I love them, so I always make extra.

How do you get the skin crispy?

It's not crispy on slow roasted. If you want it crispy, you can sear the skin side quickly first, but you might lose the buttery texture you get with slow roasting it. I don't eat the skin. The meat comes right off the skin.

I eat it if I make it crispy, but the texture of the meat slow roasted is so hard to beat!! Try it sometime. You can crisp it first, but not for long or it will screw it up.

Grilled. Coat with olive oil and generously with lemon pepper. Grill until tender with a little char. Awesome.

Glad you liked it! I love them that way. If I add parm cheese, I do that just before I take them out because it tends to over brown sometimes and I don't like it that way. Sometimes, I sprinkle chives, greens onions and lemon juice over them. Other times, I drizzled some balsamic glaze.
