Servings: 4 to 6 as a first course
One of the great surprises about white asparagus is how deliciously crisp and refreshing it is raw. Slicing it thin makes peeling unnecessary, but be sure to trim off the tough bottom inch or so of each stalk.
Ingredients
- 12 oz. white asparagus, bottom ends trimmed, sliced very thinly on a sharp diagonal
- 1/2 oz. (about 1 cup) fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
- 2 Tbs. dried cranberries
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbs. Champagne vinegar
- 1 tsp. honey

Preparation
- In a medium bowl, toss the asparagus with the parsley leaves and cranberries. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
