RAW ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH WALNUTS & PARMESAN



Raw Asparagus Salad with Walnuts & Parmesan image

From Joshua McFadden's Six Seasons, a favorite cookbook. Notes: Bread Crumbs: I love whizzing up stale bread in the food processor and toasting the crumbs in olive oil. If you're not up for this, panko bread crumbs would be fine. I would still toast them in olive oil before adding them to the salad. You also could omit the bread crumbs and add more walnuts in their place. Also: You only need 1/3 cup of toasted bread crumbs for this recipe, but I find it easier to make a large batch of crumbs than a small one. Save the remaining crumbs for other salads, soups, or eggs. They're irresistible!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

a large hunk of bread, to yield 1.5 to 2 cups lightly packed fresh crumbs, see notes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup walnuts
1 lb. asparagus, tough bottoms trimmed
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano
1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
salt to taste, I use Maldon here
freshly cracked black pepper to taste
zest from 1 lemon
Juice from 1 to 2 lemons to yield 1/4 cup
1/4 cup lightly packed mint leaves, optional
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Place day-old bread in the food processor and whiz until fine. Measure out 1.5 to 2 cups of crumbs. Heat the 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add the crumbs and the salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until crumbs are golden brown. This could take 5 to 15 minutes (or longer) depending on your heat level. If you have the time, go slowly to prevent burning. When the crumbs are nice and golden, turn off the heat. Let cool briefly. Taste. Add more salt if necessary. Measure out 1/3 cup of the crumbs - this is the amount the original recipe calls for. You can use more if you wish.
  • Place the walnuts in a medium skillet. Set the skillet over low heat. Allow the walnuts to toast slowly while you prepare the salad. Remove them from the heat when they smell and look toasty. You can chop them on a cutting board or by gently crushing them in a tea towel.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice the asparagus thinly on the bias.
  • In a large bowl, combine the toasted walnuts, the 1/3 cup (or more!) toasted bread crumbs, the grated Parmigiano Reggiano, the crushed red pepper flakes (starting with 1/4 teaspoon if you are sensitive to heat), salt and pepper to taste, and the zest of the lemon. Stir to combine. Add the asparagus and toss to combine. "Taste and dial in the flavors by adding more salt, black pepper, chile flakes, or lemon juice. When the flavors are bright and delicious, add the mint (if using) and 1/4 cup olive oil." Toss to combine. Taste and adjust the flavors again if necessary.
  • Transfer to a serving platter. Crack more pepper over top if you wish.

SHAVED ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH GINGER AND SESAME



Shaved Asparagus Salad With Ginger and Sesame image

Succulent, fat, fresh asparagus is thinly sliced by hand for this raw salad - easier than you'd think, and safer than using a mandoline. It's very refreshing and bright tasting.

Categories     dinner, lunch, salads and dressings, vegetables, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 jalapeño pepper, seeds removed and finely diced (optional)
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 pounds fat asparagus
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup slivered scallions
Squeeze of lime juice, to taste
Mint leaves, for garnish
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1 tablespoon black sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Make the dressing: In a small bowl, stir together rice vinegar, ginger, garlic and brown sugar. Add jalapeño and sesame oil, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Snap or cut off the tough bottoms of each asparagus spear. With a vegetable peeler, peel each tough-skinned spear, starting halfway down from tip and peeling toward bottom end.
  • Cut the asparagus at a long diagonal into very thin slices (not paper thin - about the width of a thinly sliced onion). Place asparagus slices in a wide salad bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss lightly. Add the ginger dressing and toss to coat well. Taste and adjust. Add scallions and lime juice and toss again.
  • Garnish with mint leaves and cilantro sprigs. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

ASPARAGUS VINAIGRETTE



Asparagus Vinaigrette image

Asparagus is at its flavorful best for only a short time, usually between March and May, when you'll want to avail yourself of its abundance. There are, of course, a number of ways to prepare and serve asparagus, but this method, in which it is paired with a savory vinaigrette, is one of Martha's seasonal favorites.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dinner Recipes     Dinner Side Dishes

Number Of Ingredients 9

Coarse salt
2 bunches asparagus (about 2 pounds), trimmed
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
Pinch of sugar
Freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt, and the asparagus. Return to a boil, and cook until asparagus are bright green and tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to ice bath to cool. Drain well, pat dry, and transfer to a serving platter.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, vinegar, and sugar. Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Whisk in oil. Add lemon zest and tarragon; whisk to combine. Taste, and adjust for seasoning. Drizzle over asparagus. Serve immediately, or let stand at room temperature for up to 30 minutes before serving.

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.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 large eggs
1 tablespoon white-wine or Champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon country-style Dijon mustard
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 tablespoons capers, drained and coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped small cornichons (about 6)
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound asparagus, trimmed

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a small pot of water to a simmer over medium heat. Lower eggs into water; cook 9 minutes. Transfer to ice bath; let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel and slice into rounds.
  • Whisk together vinegar, mustard, and sugar. Slowly whisk in oil, then capers, cornichons, and thyme. Season to taste.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Drizzle asparagus lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until crisp-tender and charred in places, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a platter, top with eggs, and spoon vinaigrette over top; serve.

LEMONY ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH SHAVED CHEESE AND NUTS



Lemony Asparagus Salad With Shaved Cheese and Nuts image

Less is more when it comes to asparagus, especially those first tender stalks that show up in spring. Here they're quickly steamed and turned into an elegant salad tossed with a lemony, shallot dressing, and enriched with plenty of grated Manchego or other cheese. Chopped pistachios add another shade of green to the plate along with their sweet crunch, but use any nuts you like, or skip them entirely. This tangy, bright salad doesn't need them.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup pistachios or other nuts
1 pound asparagus, woody ends trimmed
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons soft herbs, such as dill, parsley and tarragon, or a combination
3 tablespoons minced shallots, red onion or scallion
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or cider vinegar)
Large pinch of kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
3/4 cup coarsely grated cheese (1 1/2 ounces), preferably a young sheep's milk, such as pecorino or Manchego, but any firm cheese works, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, spread pistachios in an even layer and toast for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool enough to handle, then roughly chop.
  • Meanwhile, fill a large skillet with 1-inch water. Place steam basket on top, cover and bring to a simmer. Steam asparagus until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
  • Finely chop 3 tablespoons mixed soft herbs. In a medium bowl, combine shallot, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and the pepper, and let sit for 2 minutes. Whisk in oil, then stir in pistachios, cheese and chopped herbs.
  • To serve, drizzle asparagus with oil and salt to taste. Dollop with dressing, tear remaining 1/2 cup herbs on top, and sprinkle generously with more cheese. Taste and adjust salt as needed.
