Local asparagus with Dijon cream, chives and crispy jambon

Posted on

This simple but delicious dish is featured on the Spring 2018 at Café Presse, but only as long as the local aspargus is in season.  Washington State asparagus is so good, why eat anything else? Warming the blanched asparagus with olive oil  before serving brings out its rich, herby flavor.
