Tie into four bundles and boil upright in a tall pan of salted water for 8 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, peel the hard-boiled eggs and mash them in a small bowl. Add the vinegar, oil, salt and pepper, and mix together thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p>Arrange the cooked asparagus in a serving dish, spoon over the dressing and serve immediately, while still hot.<\/p>\n<h5><em>The area of Bassano del Grappa, in the Veneto, is famous for producing phenomenally good asparagus. This recipe makes a dish that is great for serving alongside cold poached fish or with meats such as thinly sliced roasted ham or rare roast beef. Try to pick asparagus spears that are not too thick, as they tend to have less flavor than those that have a firm stem of medium thickness. The olive oil needs to have a gentle taste without too much bite or pepperiness.<\/em><strong>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"author-credit\">Reprinted with permission from\u00a0<\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0754832406\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0754832406&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=healagin09-20&amp;linkId=3c67fb0dffdfb3bb7fa91fd80f49fc3d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>The Italian Regional Cookbook<\/em> <\/a>by Valentina Harris\n<strong>Lorenz Books<\/p>\n<p class=\"back-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/?p=8839&amp;preview=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Back to Food Article<\/a><\/p><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View recipe<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":8897,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[35,112],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipe","category-spring-summer-2019-recipe"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8891"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8891\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9174,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8891\/revisions\/9174"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8897"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8891"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8891"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
