Ingredients

2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed
5 tablespoons butter, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
6 slices bread, toasted

Instructions

Prepare all the necessary ingredients.
Boil the asparagus in a large pot or skillet until tender, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Ensure the asparagus is fully submerged in water before boiling. Drain well.
Create a smooth roux by combining butter and flour in the same pot over medium-low heat. Stir in milk, asparagus, and salt. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Butter each slice of toast with about 1 teaspoon of butter. Generously spoon the creamed asparagus over the buttered toast and serve immediately.
