Hi, I’m Keith Snow. I’m going to show you how to make an asparagus and green leaf salad with a really great sesame ginger vinaigrette, extremely simple.

This is um asparagus that we just lightly steamed. They’re in season this time of the year. And the key here is not to make them mushy. They should have a little bit of aldentainess to them. So, we’re going to put maybe about a cup, and I’m going to try and get a few more of the tops or the spears as I can. Like that, that’s probably enough. We’ll put a little bit of our vinaigrette on top, just to get these sort of started. And you don’t want to go crazy with it. Now some black pepper and a little pinch of kosher salt. So just give these a little light toss, get them coated. Now, we’re going to add some organic green leaf lettuce. This is just been torn, we didn’t even cut it, washed and spun dry very important that this is not wet. We want it to be nice and dry. So, we’ll put a little handful. The real uh, the key to this salad is the asparagus and not so much the leaf lettuce.
