This salad was fine. It was definitely nice to have a big bowl of vegetables. However , the predominate flavor is of arugula , not asparagus. And given the amount of time it takes to shave all those stalks , I probably won't make this again.

WOW - this is delicious! I toasted the pistachios and added mint. I am going to try this over a special pasta like pea ravioli!

I made this the other night as a quick but healthy and in-season meal (along with some good bread) when I was feeling lazy, and I loved it! I used a delicious goat's milk feta which really popped along with the lemon and salt. A great, fresh alternative to the (still good, but expected) asparagus risotto or asparagus soup I would've otherwise made.

I loved this! The asparagus I found was very thin, so instead of shaving I sliced and blanched. It was a hit and paired beautifully with rose!

This is so much better than I thought it would be. I had all the ingredients except for the arugula and my search of what to do with yet another bunch of spring asparagus brought me to this recipe. My husband and I really loved the combinations of flavors, the sweet crunch of pistachios, the bright lemon and salt flakes - the peas were an unexpected delight each time we got one. I used a handful of fresh spinach leaves in lieu of the arugula, but otherwise made as directed. Thanks for a much welcomed new way to eat those lovely spring spears.

Made this dish last night. Very clean and delicious. My wife says it is a do again dish.
