Powerpoint 2010 has a rather robust set of animation options that can really help your slides stand out. But it is very easy to overuse the animation effects to the point where they overwhelm the information you are trying to present, or the information that you are viewing.
Vacuum sealing asparagus is the preferred method of freezing asparagus because it removes the cold air that causes freezer burn, or oxidation and dis-colorization of the spears, which can cause the spears to have an off taste that will spoil the flavor and texture of the asparagus.
Microwave the bundle for 3 to 4 minutes. Cook the wrapped asparagus on full power until the spears just barely become crisp tender. 1  Place the bundle in your microwave with the open seam-side facing down. If you want to flavor the asparagus as it cooks, use the tender-cook method outlined above and add the 1 Tbsp (15 ml) of garlic butter to the asparagus when you add the salt, just before you cover and cook it. 2  The rest of the butter can be stored and refrigerated in an airtight container for 3 days.
