steamed asparagus
Hot green stalks
Steamed asparagus is asparagus cooked by exposure to steam rather than boiled, roasted, or sautéed.
Steaming preserves the vegetable's bright green color and crisp-tender texture better than boiling: The steamed asparagus was perfectly done—still had some bite to it.
