The asparagus must be fresh and in season, brightly colored, and crisp, with almost a glow in the center of the stalk.

The asparagus is not actually rôtie, or roasted, but rather sautéed in butter until it has a gilded, roasted appearance. The sprinkling of chopped raw asparagus at the end adds crunch and a slightly nutty taste to a dish of silken textures and flavors.
