Place a plastic bag over the glass and place it in the refrigerator.
The asparagus should keep firm for two or three days this way.
Store in the crisper for two to three days.
Break or cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears.
Arrange the asparagus spears on a foil-lined baking sheet and coat with olive oil.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Parmesan.
Sprinkle the salt, paper, and Parmesan on top.
Bake at 400F until the cheese begins to brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
