GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH CAPER-CORNICHON VINAIGRETTE



Grilled Asparagus with Caper-Cornichon Vinaigrette image

Inspired by gribiche, the French sauce traditionally served with steamed asparagus, this salad takes a modern approach by grilling the spears then piling them on a platter with sliced hard-cooked eggs. The mustard vinaigrette, chock-full of cornichons and capers, preserves all the briny goodness of the original sauce.
