Perfectly tender asparagus with butter, garlic, and lemon. This vegetable sous vide recipe delivers vibrant flavor and foolproof texture in just 12 minutes.
1 bunch asparagus
2 tbsp butter, cut into 4 pieces
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice, about 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
1. Preheat water bath 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.
5. Squeeze lemon over the asparagus and toss again. Serve.
For crisp-tender asparagus, do not exceed 15 minutes. For softer texture, cook up to 18 minutes. Use vacuum seal or zipper bag with water displacement method.
