This perfectly cooked asparagus is nestled in a cheesy puff pastry tart that’s ideal for Easter and other spring brunches. By using the steam function of the Anova Precision Oven, you’ll never end up with dry, stringy asparagus again! Note: This recipe works best when there’s some airflow underneath the asparagus while steaming. To do so, the recipe uses a perforated pan, which is now available to order through Anova. If you don't have one, placing a wire rack over a sheet pan or oven rack works as a substitute.

4. Roll Pastry

Place the puff pastry sheet on a piece of parchment paper. Roll the sheet until it is just smaller than the Anova sheet pan. Place the pastry, still on the parchment, on the sheet pan.

5. Make Cheese Filling

In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, Gruyère, and garlic. Use a rubber spatula to thoroughly incorporate. If the mixture is too stiff to stir, microwave for 5 seconds on high power before stirring again.

6. Add to Pastry

Spread the Dijon in a very thin layer on the pastry, leaving a 3/4- to 1-inch boarder around the edge. Use an offset spatula to spread the cheese mixture over the mustard. Use a paring knife to cut an indendation around the cheese, making sure to not cut all of the way through the pastry.
