Steps:
- Trim crusts from bread, and flatten slightly with a rolling pin.
- In a bowl, stir blue and cream cheeses together with the egg until well blended and creamy. Spread a thin layer of cheese mixture over each slice of bread. Roll one asparagus spear inside each, and fasten with a toothpick.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan. Roll each asparagus wrap in butter to coat. Place on a baking sheet small enough to fit into the freezer, and freeze for one hour, or until butter hardens and wraps are somewhat firm. Remove pan from freezer, discard toothpicks, and cut each wrap in half crosswise. Store in a resealable plastic bag in the freezer until ready to use.
- To serve, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
- Arrange frozen asparagus wraps on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned. Check occasionally, and turn if necessary, for even browning and to prevent burning. Enjoy!

ASPARAGUS SPEARS WITH SESAME

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, white wine vinegar, soy sauce, and sugar. Set aside.
- Prepare an ice bath: Fill a large bowl halfway with ice cubes and add some cold water. Place a colander squarely inside the ice bath. The colander will keep you from having to pick the asparagus out from amongst the ice cubes in the ice bath.
- Add salt until the boiling water tastes like seawater. Add the asparagus to the boiling water and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes - you want them to be crunchy. If the asparagus are thin, cook for only 1 minute. Remove the asparagus from the water with a strainer and transfer them to the colander inside the ice bath. Allow them to cool completely for a few minutes and then place them on a kitchen towel to drain any excess moisture.
- Toss the asparagus, sesame seeds, and the sauce together and refrigerate for 1 hour, or until ready to serve.

Steps:
- For Pickled Herring Mousse:
- Chill mold for mousse in freezer. Blend herring, 1 at a time, to a fine puree. Strain through a fine sieve. Puree apples with Calvados, and add to herring puree. Stir in cream. Season with salt and pepper.
- Dissolve gelatin in water over low heat. Do not let boil. Set aside to cool.
- Fold egg whites into herring-apple puree, then whisk in cooled gelatin. Pour in chilled mold and place in refrigerator to set.
- To serve, unmold and slice.
- For Onions and Raisins in a Seasoned Sauce:
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter in large pan over medium heat. Add onions and gently cook. Then add 1/2 of the white wine, half of the ketchup, and half of the raisins. Saute for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a separate pan, heat remaining butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook gently. Add the remaining wine, ketchup, and raisins. Season with salt and pepper.
- Chill each mixture in separate bowls until ready to serve.
- For Veal Brains in Marinade:
- Drain brains and place in saucepan with fresh water to cover. Bring to boil, over medium heat. Remove and plunge into a bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Once cooled, drain, trim off fat and skin, and cut into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
- Blend together sugar, vinegar, oil and cayenne. Pour over brains and chill for 1 hour.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS
A great appetizer to serve from Bon Appetit. The cheese can be hard to spread on the prosciutto, so try to get the prosciutto cut a little thicker than those in packages. I usually make half of these with the honey mustard, and the other half without it because some people think the mustard is a little too over powering. But either way, they go fast.

Steps:
- Trim the asparagus stalks so that the spears are 5 inches long. In a deep skillet bring 1 1/2 inches salted water to a boil and cook the asparagus until they are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. In a colander drain the asparagus and rinse under cold water. Drain the asparagus well on paper towels.
- In a bowl mash the Boursin with a fork until it is smooth. Cut 1 slice of prosciutto lengthwise into 1-inch strips and spread each strip with about 1/2 teaspoon Boursin. Spread about 1/4 teaspoon mustard over the Boursin and wrap each strip in a spiral around an asparagus spear, trimming any excess. Make more hors d'oeuvres with the remaining prosciutto, Boursin, mustard, and asparagus spears in the same manner.

Steps:
- Unfold pastry sheets and halve each parallel to fold lines. Roll out 1 half (keep remaining 3 halves chilled, covered with plastic wrap) into a 20- by 7-inch rectangle with a floured rolling pin on a well-floured surface. (Pastry will shrink slightly after rolling.) Brush off excess flour from work surface and both sides of pastry, then trim all edges with a sharp knife to make even. Cut crosswise into 6 (6 1/2- by 3-inch) rectangles.
- Brush rectangles with some egg wash and sprinkle each evenly with 1 packed tablespoon cheese, leaving a 1/2-inch border on long sides. Lay an asparagus stalk along 1 long side, then roll up asparagus in pastry, pressing seam to seal. Make more rolls with remaining pastry, cheese, and asparagus.
- Arrange rolls, seam sides down, about 1 inch apart on lightly oiled baking sheets and brush top and sides lightly with egg wash. Chill rolls until pastry is firm, at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Bake rolls in batches in middle of oven until puffed and golden, about 16 minutes.
- Transfer with a metal spatula to a cutting board and trim about 1/2 inch from ends. Halve each roll crosswise, then, starting about 1/2 inch from either end, cut each section diagonally in half (see photo, opposite). Stand asparagus rolls on end, 2 by 2 on platters, and drizzle each with 1 drop of truffle oil (if using). Serve warm.
