How to Make Asparagus With Mustard Dressing
- Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound asparagus spears.
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and blanch for 3-4 minutes, until bright green and tender-crisp.
- Immediately transfer the asparagus to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and retain its vibrant color.
- While the asparagus chills, whisk together in a small bowl: 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Drain the asparagus thoroughly and gently pat dry with paper towels.
- Add the asparagus to the dressing and toss gently to coat.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with fresh parsley or lemon zest (optional).
