Nothing says spring like seeing asparagus at the farmers’ market. It’s my version of the first tulips! Today I’m roasting it, one of the simplest and most delicious ways to serve asparagus.
Sarah’s Tip of the Day:
I’m serving the asparagus with a springy salad made from lettuce and radishes and tossed with an easy vinaigrette of rice vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and chives. Bring it all together with some rustic toast topped with ricotta… It’s a simple weeknight dinner that’s just as enjoyable as the season itself! Watch the video to see my speedy way to trim asparagus — it’s a tip you’ll use over and over again.
