Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Messy spot prawns, slivered garlic, piment d'Espelette, lemon, butter

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Lovely accompaniment to Spaghetti with Clams, Crème Fraîche, and Green Herbs from Renee Erickson's Sunlight & Breadcrumbs cookbook. The raw asparagus, cut on an angle, had great texture without being too crunchy, the mint and parsley pesto a wonderful addition. This was for a cookbook group gathering and a hit with everyone. A terrific spring salad when asparagus is plentiful and at its peak.
