FUSILLI WITH ASPARAGUS AND BACON
Steps:
- Cook bacon in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 6 minutes. Transfer bacon with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from skillet, then add oil and onion to skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is golden, about 4 minutes.
- Add asparagus and sauté, stirring, until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- While onion is cooking, cook pasta in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water and drain pasta in a colander.
- Return pasta to pot along with asparagus mixture, 1/2 cup pasta cooking water, and cheese. Add remaining 1/2 cup cooking water to skillet and deglaze by boiling, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Add to pasta and toss over moderately low heat until combined well, about 30 seconds.
- Serve pasta sprinkled with bacon and with additional cheese on the side.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare a medium fire in the grill.
- 2. In a small saucepan over high heat, boil the vinegar to reduce its volume to 1/4 cup.
- 3. In a small bowl, combine the reduced vinegar with the butter, honey, basil, and salt. Using a whisk, vigorously whip the butter until smooth and all ingredients are blended.
- 4. With a paring knife, make a shallow cut into the curved side of each plantain lengthwise, from end to end. Repeat the process, making the second cut 1/2 inch away from the first. Remove the 1/2-inch piece of peel, then, using your fingers, gently pry away the peel from the sides of each plantain. Next, take some balsamic butter and spread generously over the entire inside of each plantain, leaving the peel on the outside intact.
- 5. Place the plantains on the outer perimeter of the grill to receive indirect heat. Grill for about 1 hour, basting with the remaining balsamic butter.
- 6. To serve, place whole plantains on a serving plate. Using a soup spoon, scoop out spoonfuls of the plantain flesh to serve individual portions.
