Ingredients

  1. Kosher salt
  2. 1 small bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  3. 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  4. 1/3 cup sour cream
  5. 1 bulb fennel, cored and thinly sliced, plus 1/2 cup fronds
  6. 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  7. 1/4 cup fresh tarragon
  8. Juice of 1 lemon
  9. 2 oil-packed anchovy fillets
  10. Freshly ground pepper
  11. 1 head Boston lettuce, torn
  12. 1 5-ounce package mixed baby greens (about 8 cups)
  13. 1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed and halved
  14. 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  15. 1/2 cup chopped roasted pistachios

Instructions

  1. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool, then drain and pat dry.
  2. Meanwhile, make the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, fennel fronds, parsley, tarragon, lemon juice, anchovies, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a mini food processor. Process until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  3. Combine the asparagus, sliced fennel, Boston lettuce, mixed greens, peas, celery and pistachios in a large bowl. Just before serving, drizzle with the dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss.
