SHAVED RAW ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON VINAIGRETTE
"Chef Jonathan Waxman serves this spring salad at his restaurant, Barbuto, located in a former garage in Manhattan's Meatpacking District. A mandoline is the best way to shave the spears. If you don't have one, use a sharp chef's knife or a vegetable peeler."
12 medium-size asparagus spears, tough ends snapped off
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (2 ounce) wedge Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Using a mandoline fitted with a slicing blade, and with the hand guard in place, carefully shave the asparagus lengthwise into long, graceful strips.
Place the strips in a bowl and toss with the lemon juice, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
Finally, using a vegetable peeler, shave the cheese over the top.
Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled.
Makes 4 servings
