Place the trimmed asparagus in a zip-top bag or vacuum bag in a single layer. Drizzle with 1 tbsp of the olive oil and season with the kosher salt and black pepper. Seal the bag using the water-displacement method (for a zip-top bag, lower it slowly into the water until just the zipper is above the surface, then seal) or vacuum-seal it.
