This shaved asparagus salad, with Parmesan shavings, Romaine lettuce, and a quick homemade dressing, is simple, yet elegant and refreshing, and is the perfect way to welcome Spring.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic , minced
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
  • 0.25 cups olive oil
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, and anchovy paste. Stream in olive oil, whisking until well incorporated and emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and set aside.

  4. 4

    Top salad with Parmesan shavings, sprinkle with toasted pine nuts, and serve.
