What Happens When You Forget the Asparagus on the Stove Is Still Steaming?

The phone rang. It was my neighbor. We gabbed and gabbed and then I smelled the asparagus. I said I had to run but by then it was too late. The asparagus had steamed into inedible mush. The best thing I can do with it now is immersion blender it into soup. Drat. I love toothy asparagus. I ruined two new bunches!
