Spring Vegetable Risotto
What we're here to talk about today is vegetables, in particular, asparagus and morel mushrooms.
Roasted Vegetables
The best roasted vegetables are cooked in a moderate rather than hot oven so they have time to sweeten and caramelise!

Glazed Winter Vegetable Medley With Chestnuts and Caper Berries From 'Feast'
The final savory chapter in Sarah Copeland's new cookbook, Feast, focuses on a few larger, celebration-sized meals. These recipes take a bit longer to prepare than those in the rest of the book, requiring more attention to detail, but they're worth the time—think paella, vegetable tagine, and silky (bread crumb-free) eggplant parmesan. Her glazed winter vegetable medley is the centerpiece of the chapter.

Sautéed Asparagus
Sautéed whole asparagus spears don't get as much play as blanched and grilled do, but they should. When done right, they have a deep, woodsy flavor that's hard to beat. Plus, it's easy to do. Here, they're served with a bright, herbal caraway-yogurt sauce.

Browned Brussels With Maple Butter From 'Choosing Sides'
Brussels sprouts are a given on my Thanksgiving table, but I don't always give them much thought. Olive oil, salt, and a hot oven are my only requirements. While this method does produce pleasantly caramelized sprouts, it doesn't add much excitement to the table. This year, I'll take a cue from Tara Mataraza Desmond and toss my Brussels in brown butter and maple syrup as she does in her new cookbook, Choosing Sides.
