Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/8 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
1/16 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoons sugar
Pinch dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon crushed caraway seed
1/3 cup red-wine vinegar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon ketchup
1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups trimmed and finely sliced asparagus (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons finely sliced scallions, green and white parts
1/4 cup thinly sliced radish
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 medium sized Boston or bibb lettuce leaves, washed

Steps:

  • Make the dressing by combining the mustard, celery salt, pepper, paprika, salt, sugar, thyme and caraway seed in a medium bowl. Whisk in the vinegar, oil and 3 tablespoons of water. Transfer cup dressing to a small bowl, then whisk in the ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Cover tightly and chill the remaining dressing for use in other salads.
  • Assemble the salad by lightly tossing the asparagus, scallions and radish together with the salt. Lay a cup-shaped lettuce leaf on each of 4 plates. Divide the mixture into the lettuce cups. Drizzle with the dressing. Serve immediately.

This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

The asparagus in this salad was tough and stringy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I would add some more lemon juice and Parmesan cheese.

I'm going to try this salad with grilled asparagus instead of raw. I think it will be even more flavorful.

I'm not usually a fan of raw asparagus, but this salad changed my mind. The dressing really brings out the flavor of the asparagus.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I added some grilled chicken and avocado to make it a more complete meal.
