If you didn’t read the title of the recipe you might be thinking, “What kind of cheese is that?” It’s not cheese at all. In fact, it’s hard-boiled eggs that have been shredded with a microplane (AKA the most-used item in my kitchen, aside from a chef’s knife).

Instructions

1
|
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2
|
Clean asparagus and snap off or trim woody ends. Add asparagus spears to a large baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with kosher salt and cracked black pepper, tossing to fully coat.
3
|
Roast asparagus for 16 to 18 minutes, using tongs to flip halfway through. You want the asparagus to be roasted with a bit of char but not mushy.
4
|
Meanwhile, make vinaigrette by adding fresh-squeezed lemon juice, about 2 tablespoons, to a small bowl. Add in 1 teaspoon mustard, ½ teaspoon kosher salt and a pinch of cracked black pepper. Whisk to combine. Drizzle in remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, while whisking, until combined. Set aside.
5
|
Once asparagus is done, let it cool for a few minutes. Add the spears to a platter, drizzle with about 2 tablespoons vinaigrette. Store remaining vinaigrette in an air-tight container for use at a later time.
6
|
Using a microplane, shave hard-boiled eggs all over the top of the asparagus. Serve.
