GRILLED ASPARAGUS GRIBICHE
Steps:
- Preheat the grill to medium. Brush the asparagus with oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. Remove from the grill and place on a serving platter.
- Place the cooked egg yolks, tarragon, capers, cornichons, salt, and pepper in the work bowl of a food processor and pulse until just combined. With the processor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified. Add enough white wine vinegar to make the sauce thin enough to drizzle. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper, if necessary. Drizzle the sauce over the asparagus and serve immediately.
GRIBICHE
A classic French sauce starring hard-boiled eggs, gribiche gets its briny kick from cornichons and capers. It's great over steamed new potatoes or poached leeks or asparagus, and on bagels with lox.

ASPARAGUS WITH SAUCE GRIBICHE
Sauce Gribiche is similar to an aioli or a mayonnaise sauce with chopped hard cooked eggs, capers, pickles and herbs. It is also terrific over meat or fish or even potatoes! You can substitute 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or to taste) instead of making your own. Taste and add mustard and/or vinegar, if desired. Also, use your choice of fresh herbs.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; prepare an ice water bath.
- Cook asparagus until crisp-tender, about 4 to 5 minutes depending on size; plunge into water bath, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Asparagus can also be pan fried, just until the tips are golden, instead of blanching.
- Coarsely chop the egg whites and set aside; push the yolks through a sieve into a medium sized bowl.
- Separate the egg and place the yolk into a large bowl; reserve the white for another use.
- Whisk mustard and vinegar into the egg yolk; season with salt and pepper.
- Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified and thickened.
- Fold in capers, cornichons, herbs, egg whites, and egg yolks; taste and season again with salt and pepper, if needed.
- Arrange asparagus on a serving platter, or individual plates; top with several dollops of the sauce and garnish with parsley or chervil sprigs.
- NOTE: If substituting with mayonnaise, use about 1/2 cup of that (or more to taste) and leave out the egg entirely. Use mustard and vinegar to taste as well as the salt and pepper. Leave out the oil.
