Chef's Note
“I had seen this a few times before and I thought that I would give it a try. I don't like a asparagus, but with some good prosciutto, the asparagus is excellent. Prosciutto is already pretty salty, so just to be safe, I wouldn't salt the asparagus until its on your plate. Prosciutto is basically fancy Italian bacon.”
