Salad of Warm White Asparagus (Spargel), Baby Arugula and Beefst image

Yummy, yummy! Some of my favorite things! If you are lucky enough to be able to make this when the tomatoes are in season, this salad tops all others! I love the presentation of the white asparagus contrasting with the dark green arugula and bright red tomatoes. Just a beautiful dish! Recipe courtesy of Emeril Lagasse.

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs white asparagus
