Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Trim about 2 inches from the bottom of the asparagus.

    Blanch the asparagus in the boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove and plunge into a bowl of ice water for 2 minutes. Remove and pat dry.

  3. 3

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, onions, shallots, garlic, capers, parsley, chervil, and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Add the crabmeat and mix gently. Re-season if needed.

  5. 5

    Arrange the asparagus on a serving platter and spoon the crabmeat mixture over the center. Serve immediately.
