Take 1 triangle of dough and cut it directly down the middle making 2 equal-sized parts.

(If making more than 16 asparagus spirals you can cut 1 triangle into more piecesthis will make the dough on the spiral thinner.)

Slowly spin the asparagus stalk allowing the dough to spiral around the stalk.
