Preparation
- Step 1
Put the morels in a dish, cover with boiling water and allow to soak for an hour. Drain, reserving the soaking liquid, then pat the morels dry and spread on paper towels.
- Step 2
Boil the soaking liquid down in a small saucepan until it is reduced to two tablespoons. Set aside.
- Step 3
Snap ends off asparagus and slant-cut in inch-and-a-half lengths.
- Step 4
Heat two tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet. Add the asparagus, sprinkle with salt and stir-fry about four minutes. Add the drained morels and stir-fry another four minutes or so, until the vegetables are tender. Set aside.
- Step 5
Add the vinegar and wine to the mushroom liquid and cook for one minute. Begin to whisk in the remaining butter, about a tablespoon at a time over low heat, until a thickened, creamy sauce results. Season with pepper.
- Step 6
Divide the asparagus and morels among four plates, spoon some of the sauce over each, dust with chervil and serve.
