Asparagus wrapped in prosciutto is the perfect dish this time of year. Fat, juicy spears of asparagus wrapped in salty prosciutto and cooked to a crisp. If the weather is lovely, pop these on the grill to crisp them up. The smell will make everyone go wild. These cloaked spears are a perfect finger food for picnics, parties or daily treat. Asparagus are one of the very few foods, that even sticklers for excruciatingly correct behaviour cannot repudiate are acceptable to eat with your hands. Delicately pinch the blunt end of the asparagus stem between your fingers, tilt your head back and lower the stalk into your open mouth. Asparagus offer even the genteel, the primordial satisfaction of eating with your hands.
