Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus with Tarragon Mayonnaise

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

2. Blanch the asparagus until bright green and plunge immediately into ice water to stop the cooking process.

3. Remove the asparagus from the ice bath and pat completely dry with paper towels.

4. Lay the prosciutto slices out onto a baking sheet or cutting board.

5. Place several stalks of asparagus across each of the slices of prosciutto, making a cross shape and ensuring the asparagus tips are all facing the same direction.

6. Tightly wrap the prosciutto around the asparagus to make small bundles.

7. Combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and tarragon.

8. On a large plate or platter, spread some of the mayonnaise on the bottom. Layer the sliced eggs on top, then place the asparagus bundles around. Serve immediately.
