Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, oil, sugar, and dill. Add cucumbers and onion, season with salt and pepper, and toss until well combined; set aside.
- Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add salt and return water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Place asparagus in boiling water; cook until just tender, 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer asparagus to ice-water bath for 1 minute, remove and pat dry; transfer to cucumber mixture. Add beans to the boiling water, and cook until just tender, 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beans to the ice-water bath for 1 minute, remove and pat dry. Transfer beans to cucumber mixture along with hearts of palm, tomatoes, and lettuce. Season with salt and pepper; toss until well combined.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: For the best flavor and texture, select avocados that are ripe but not overripe. Look for avocados that are dark green or black in color, with slightly soft flesh that yields to gentle pressure.
- Prepare asparagus properly: Trim the woody ends of the asparagus spears before cooking. You can also peel the asparagus, although this is not necessary.
- Use fresh hearts of palm: Canned hearts of palm can be used in a pinch, but fresh hearts of palm have a much better flavor and texture. Look for hearts of palm that are white or pale green in color, with a firm texture.
- Make a flavorful dressing: The dressing for this salad is simple but flavorful. Use a good quality olive oil and vinegar, and season it with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
- Serve immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The avocado and hearts of palm will start to brown if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
This avocado, asparagus, and hearts of palm salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is packed with fresh vegetables and a flavorful dressing, and it is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you are looking for a healthy and delicious salad, give this recipe a try!
