ASPARAGUS WITH MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE



Asparagus With Mustard Vinaigrette image

Here is an easy, springtime recipe that takes no time at all and puts the light flavors of the season right onto your table. Cooking time is key: both the asparagus and the eggs must be watched carefully. Arrange everything on a plate beautifully, and throw open the windows to spring.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     quick, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds large or medium asparagus
4 large eggs
1 small shallot, finely diced
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon finely cut chives

Steps:

  • Snap off and discard the tough bottoms of each asparagus spear. If using large thick asparagus, peel the lower ends with a vegetable peeler. Medium asparagus will not need peeling.
  • Bring a medium saucepan half filled with water to a boil, carefully add the eggs and simmer briskly for 9 minutes (10 minutes for a slightly firmer yolk). Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Shell the eggs and set aside.
  • Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, place the shallots, vinegar and a pinch of salt. Let shallots soften for 5 minutes. Stir in the mustard to dissolve, then whisk in the olive oil to make a thick dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • In a large stainless-steel soup pot bring 4 quarts of well-salted water to a rolling boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until just done. Remove asparagus with a large strainer and spread out on a baking sheet lined with a clean kitchen towel. Asparagus may be served warm or at room temperature.
  • To serve, place asparagus on a platter or individual plates. Spoon the vinaigrette over the asparagus. Garnish with quartered eggs (or roughly chop the eggs if you prefer). Sprinkle with chives.

Tips:

  • Choose the right asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are firm and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have woody ends.
  • Trim the asparagus properly: Cut off the tough, woody ends of the asparagus spears. You can do this by snapping them off or using a knife.
  • Cook the asparagus al dente: Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch to it. Overcooked asparagus will be mushy and bland.
  • Make the creamy garlic mustard sauce ahead of time: The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This will save you time when you're ready to serve the asparagus.
  • Serve the asparagus immediately: Asparagus is best served hot or warm. If you're not serving it right away, keep it warm in a low oven or on a warming tray.

Conclusion:

Asparagus with Creamy Garlic Mustard Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The asparagus is tender and flavorful, and the creamy garlic mustard sauce is rich and decadent. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
