Garden Salad
How to make Garden Salad Recipe
SERVES 8
Ingredients:
2 bunches asparagus, woody ends snapped off
4 slices bacon, cut in half crosswise
7 ounces mixed baby lettuces or mesclun
1/4 cup balsamic glaze
Method:
Make an ice bath in a large bowl with cold water and plenty of ice cubes. In a large saucepan, bring 3 cups water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 3 minutes, until bright green and crisp-tender.
Using tongs, transfer the asparagus to the ice bath to stop cooking. Drain the asparagus when cool. Heat a nonstick skillet and cook the bacon for 4 to 5 minutes, until nice and crisp. Put the leaves on a large serving plate.
Add the asparagus and bacon, season with sea salt and cracked black pepper, and toss lightly. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze and serve.
Optional:
For a festive effect, sprinkle with bright, vibrant nasturtiums just before serving.
