Ingredients
1 bunch of asparagus
2 tbsp butter, cut into 4 pieces
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 lemon
Instructions
1. Preheat water bath (I like Everie containers) using immersion circulator to 180 degrees F.
2. Add asparagus, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to a vacuum seal bag. Shake it to disperse seasoning. Add butter to the bag and spread evenly. Vacuum seal, doing your best to keep the asparagus in a single layer.
3. Add the vacuum sealed asparagus to a water bath preheated to 180 degrees F and cook for 12 minutes.
4. Once done, open the bag and shake around to evenly coat stalks in seasoning and butter. Squeeze lemon over the asparagus and toss again.
Notes
To keep asparagus in a single layer, don’t overfill the bag. If stalks are very thick, cook for 14–15 minutes. For thinner stalks, reduce to 10 minutes.
