Ribboned Asparagus Caesar Salad

• INGREDIENTS
• 1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 1/4 tablespoons chopped salt-packed anchovy fillets (3 to 5 fillets), or anchovy paste
• 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
• A few pinches of kosher salt
• 1 large egg
• 1 1/2 ounces parmigiano-reggiano, finely grated (3/4 cup very lightly packed), plus shavings for garnish
• Freshly cracked black pepper
• 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 large bunch (1 pound) asparagus, ribboned

1. DIRECTIONS
2. Whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, anchovy fillets, garlic, and salt in a small mixing bowl. Add the egg, a few sprinkles of the cheese, lots of black pepper, and the lemon juice. Whisk to emulsify. Taste the dressing, first by itself and then on a ribbon of asparagus; adjust to taste.
3. Add the asparagus ribbons to a second mixing bowl and drizzle with a small amount of dressing. Sprinkle on the remainder of the grated parmigiano-reggiano and toss to coat. Add more dressing, tasting along the way (you'll likely have extra), until the asparagus is dressed to your liking.
4. Divvy up the salad among the plates and garnish with a few shavings of parmigiano-reggiano.
5. Serves one to two, with extra dressing left over.
