The test would however, need to reflect changes in biological activity over time, and would also need to closely correlate to changes in disease state (e.g. progression of symptoms). A blood test for Parkinsonâs disease would also introduce important ethical considerations, especially for asymptomatic individuals.
How to Roast Asparagus. We'll show you how to cook asparagus in the oven -- the key is roasting it at a high temperature until tender. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place asparagus on a baking sheet or in a baking dish and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss lightly to coat. If desired, season with salt and black pepper. Roast, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until crisp-tender, lightly tossing twice during roasting.
Fussing With Foil. Wrapping asparagus in foil allows you to cook it on the grill without the thin spears falling through the bars and into the flames and makes cleanup easier. It takes roughly 20 minutes to grill foil-wrapped asparagus. When oven baking, wrapping or covering this vegetable in foil helps it retain some crunch and stops it from drying out, especially if you're cooking finer spears. Bake your asparagus in foil for between 12 and 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the spears, until they're tender but still crisp.
