Grilled Spring Asparagus Salad

With the first spears of asparagus appearing in the garden and the Farmer’s Market it is time to roll out a few new recipes for one of my favourite spring vegetables.

Here is a spring salad that is perfect for lunch with a bit of bread or for dinner alongside some grilled meat or fish. We have also been pairing it with pizzas topped with wild mushrooms, Brie and truffle oil as well as my personal favourite trio of red onion jam, Cambazola and fresh thyme.

We have been teaching this salad at a bunch of the recent classes as it is so simple and springy and packed with great flavours. And if I haven’t sold you yet, it is also a salad you can make ahead of time and sprinkle on the pine nuts and the sliced radishes right before serving. Perfect for a potluck!

I will be back in a few days with a fantastic French rhubarb cake I made earlier this week as well as some recipes for the baking extravaganza I will doing on Friday and Saturday to get ready for the bake sale that is part of the Spring Fling Festival that is being held at Max’s school this Sunday, May 29th. More details on that to come…
