ASPARAGUS MIMOSA

Steps:

• Prepare a bowl of ice and cold water.
• Put asparagus in a 12-inch heavy skillet, then cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and add 2 teaspoons salt, then reduce heat and simmer asparagus, uncovered, until just tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer with tongs to ice water, then to a clean kitchen towel. Pat dry.
• Whisk together vinegar, shallot, mustard, pepper, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.
• Halve eggs, then force through a medium-mesh sieve into another small bowl. Toss asparagus with 1 tablespoon vinaigrette in a large shallow bowl, then divide asparagus among 4 plates. Spoon additional vinaigrette over asparagus and top with egg.

ASPARAGUS MUSTARD MIMOSA

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil and generously salt it. Add the asparagus and cook until bright green and crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water until cool, and drain again.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, mustard, sugar, and a pinch each of salt and pepper until the sugar dissolves. Whisk in the oil until smooth. Drizzle over the asparagus, then grate the eggs with a zester on the fine holes of a box grater over the asparagus.

ASPARAGUS MIMOSA

Steps:

ASPARAGUS MIMOSA

Steps:

• Fill a large pan with water, season with salt and bring to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Drop the asparagus in the boiling water and cook until just tender, about 4 minutes, then lift out the spears and plunge them in the ice water. Once cool, dry the asparagus on tea towels.
• Boil water again and drop in the egg. Cook for 9 minutes, then let it cool before peeling it.
• Arrange the asparagus on a platter. Sprinkle on the olive oil, and squeeze over a little lemon juice. Place the egg in a sieve and use the back of a spoon to mash it through the sieve and over the asparagus. (Hence the name -- the fluffy yellow-and-white sieved egg resembles mimosa flowers.) Finish the dish with a coarse grind of pepper and a dash of salt.
