Asparagus Salad
I still remember the sweet juicy white Spargel I had a few years ago in Germany, where Asparagus (aka Spargel) is usually white as they grow it under cover of soil.
This Asparagus Salad is very simple and open to variations. Simply blanch the asparagus, toss in some pepper strips, spring onions, onions, even sliced cooked potatoes as I do here to make it a full meal.
Dress with favorite vinaigrette - I like the Aka Miso and Blue Agave Nectar vinaigrette. Just a hint of citrus vinaigrette would be good as well.

B o o: Thanks! Isn't it nice to OD on seasonal vegetables/fruits - reminds me of the "mambazha season" in Madras - I would gorge on every variety till the sight of them would make my tummy wince :)
Priya: Thanks! Very sweet of you to stop by and drop a note here regularly. I appreciate it.
