2 1/2 lb Asparagus
2 c Hulled strawberries
1/4 c Strawberry vinegar
----------------------------------DRESSING----------------------------------
1 tb Walnut oil
1/2 c Peanut oil
1 1/2 ts Honey
Trim asparagus and cut each stalk in thirds. Steam until tender but still
crisp. (Thin young stalks took 5 minutes.) Plunge in ice water; drain.
Wash strawberries, then hull. Cut strawberries in half; combine with
asparagus.
Combine dressing ingredients; toss asparagus and strawberries gently with
dressing. Chill well before serving.
The authors write: "What could be simpler - or more delicious - than
spring's first asparagus combined with spring's first strawberries?"
My notes: Good, and simple.
