Shaved Raw Asparagus with Parmesan Dressing -
It took chef Mark Ladner from Food and Wine Magazine to teach me that you can shave asparagus- who know????
Ingredients
2 pounds large asparagus
1 cup coarsely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (3 ounces)
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons warm water
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Directions
Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus into long, thin strips and transfer to a large bowl.
In a small bowl, mix the Parmigiano-Reggiano with the lemon juice, water and olive oil. Add to the asparagus and toss to coat. Season the salad with salt and pepper and serve at once.
