ASPARAGUS & ZUCCHINI CRUDI
Love that Giada! Here's a new twist on a summer salad that can be made ahead, will keep refrigerated for several days and give you a chance to try the mandoline you bought at great expense and hardly ever use! Crudi = raw. Isn't that a nicer word??

Steps:
- Using vegetable peeler or dusty old mandoline, shave the zucchini into long thin ribbons. Thinly slice the asparagus on a diagonal (bias cut). Toss the slices together and place the salad in a serving bowl. (You can choose to briefly blanch the asparagus, but I like it crudi!).
- In a small bowl, combine the oil, the lemon juice, salt & freshly ground pepper to taste. Stir to combine and drizzle over the vegetables, tossing to coat.
- Garnish with the Pecorino shavings.
- Chill or serve room temperature.
- Preparation time includes 20 minutes hunting for the mandoline.
- You now speak Italian! Cioa!

Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender asparagus and zucchini for the best flavor and texture.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the vegetables into thin, even slices. This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the vegetables. This will prevent them from steaming instead of sautéing.
- Cook the vegetables over medium-high heat until they are tender-crisp. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the vegetables with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
- Serve the vegetables immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
