- 1/4 tsp salt, divided
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste

- Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees . Snap off the tough ends of asparagus. Toss the asparagus with shallot, oil, 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a large baking sheet with sides. Roast, turning twice, until the asparagus is tender and browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

To serve, toss the asparagus with the reduced vinegar and sprinkle with the pine nuts.
Notes
Cut Down on Dishes: A rimmed baking sheet is great for everything from roasting to catching accidental drips and spills. For effortless cleanup and to keep your baking sheets in tip-top shape, line them with a layer of foil before each use.
