| Fresh asparagus, trimmed (thicker stalks are preferred) |
1 ½ teaspoons | Rockin' Rubs Umbria Olive Oil Dipping Spice |
¼ cup | Mayonnaise |
1 ½ tablespoon | Fresh lemon juice |
|
Mix mayonnaise, lemon juice and Umbria Dip Spice together thoroughly. Allow to sit while the asparagus is cooked.
Steam or parboil the asparagus, so it's still a bit crispy.
Drizzle the aioli over the cooked spears.
Alternate ways to serve asparagus with Umbria Dip Spice:
- Mix the spice with just olive oil for dipping.
- Toss asparagus spears with olive oil and Umbria Dipping Spice and roast for 12-15 minutes in a 400-degree oven.
- Or for a bit of char, grill the spears with the olive oil and spice coating under the broiler or on a grill.
