Dinner Tonight: Shaved Asparagus, Pea, And Prosciutto Salad Recipe
- 1 pound fresh peas, shelled (see note)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon minced shallot
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 bunch asparagus, woody ends trimmed
- 6 cups spring greens
- 2 tablespoons chopped mint
- 8 slices prosciutto (preferably prosciutto di Parma), cut into thin strips
- 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
- Bring a small pot of salty water to boil. Cook the shelled peas in boiling water 3-4 minutes, until tender. Drain and let cool.
- Meanwhile, whisk the lemon juice, shallot, and mustard in a salad bowl. Whisk in the oil in a slow stream to emulsify into a dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Lay the asparagus on a cutting board, and, holding the tip, use a vegetable peeler to shave strips lengthwise down the stalk. Reserve the tips. Toss the greens, asparagus, peas, and mint together in a large bowl with the dressing. Dress and season to taste with salt and pepper. Top with prosciutto and asparagus tips and sprinkle with Parmesan.
