2-5 hrs
ingredients
1 cup trimmed* asparagus cut into 1-inch pieces
1 package active dry yeast
2 tablespoons warm water (105 degree F to 115 degree F)
1 cup hot potato water**
OR
1 cup water, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
1 tablespoon instant potato flakes
1/2 cup butter or margarine, cut up
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
4 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (more as needed)
directions
Cook asparagus in a small amount of boiling water for about 10 minutes or until tender; drain.
Meanwhile, soften yeast in the 2 tablespoons warm water.
In a blender container or regular-size food processor bowl, blend or process potato water, butter or margarine, sugar, salt, and drained asparagus. Add softened yeast and eggs; blend or process until combined.
Add 2 cups of the flour; blend or process until combined.
Transfer mixture to a bowl. Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that's smooth and elastic (5 to 8 minutes total). Return the dough to the bowl; grease top.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours.
Form dough into 1-1/2-inch balls. Place in greased muffin cups. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (45 to 60 minutes). Bake in a 400 degrees F oven for 14 to 16 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
*Note: To prepare the asparagus, wash and scrape off the scales, if you like. Break off the woody bases at the place where the spears snap easily.
**Note: Potato water is the liquid used to boil potatoes in before mashing.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
