  2. 1. For the vinaigrette, mix lemon juice, zest, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Whisk in extra virgin olive oil and set aside.
  3. 2. Bring 1 inch water to boil in a soup kettle. Put asparagus in steamer basket then carefully place steamer basket in kettle and cover and steam over medium-high heat till asparagus spears bend slightly when picked up and flesh at cut end yields when squeezed, 4 to 5 min for asparagus under 1/2 inch in diameter, 5 to 6 min for the jumbo size. Drain and plunge spears immediately into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again, cover, and chill till chilled, as long as overnight.
  4. 3. In a medium bowl, combine the shallots, thyme, asparagus, sliced potatoes, and 1 Tbsp. chives. Add in 1/4 c. vinaigrette toss to coat.
  5. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  6. 4. Arrange asparagus-potato mix with the prosciutto alongside it on 4 large serving plates. Dress lettuces with another 1/4 c. vinaigrette, and arrange a portion on each plate. Use a vegetable peeler to shave Parmesan curls over each salad. Press Large eggs through a fine sieve. Sprinkle each salad with sieved egg and remaining chives-, serve immediately with remaining dressing passed separately.

  8. Start to Finish 1 hour Preparation 30 min Attention 30 min Finishing 10 min
  9. NOTES : Even though Portale peels, bundles, and cooks his asparagus in boiling water, we still prefer the steaming method, even for the jumbos. Of course, large or possibly even medium asparagus can be substituted.
