Ingredients

2 lbs pencil-thin asparagus, ends trimmed

1/2 cup olive oil

4 T champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar

1 1/2 T Dijon mustard

1 T minced shallots

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup grated (or shaved) Parmesan cheese (fresh is best, of course, but you can use prepackaged grated)

Directions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil (you should see nickel-size bubbles roiling up). Add the asparagus and reduce heat to a simmer (cooking gently in water that's bubbling slightly) for 1 minute or until asparagus is just tender. Drain immediately in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

Pat asparagus dry with paper towels and place in a serving bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together all dressing ingredients except Parmesan. Gently pour over asparagus and toss to coat.

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
