Ingredients
2 pounds fresh asparagus spears
8 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup coarsely chopped shallots
2 tablespoons stone-ground mustard
4 teaspoons raspberry vinegar
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Make vinaigrette: In small mixing bowl, using wire wisk, whisk together shallots, mustard, both vinegars, salt and pepper. Continue whisking while slowly adding olive oil in a thin, steady stream. Gently whisk in snipped dill.
Pour vinaigrette over asparagus, spreading to evenly coat spears. Cover; let stand at room temperature at least 1 hour before serving. Arrange on platter and spoon vinaigrette over spears. Garnish with sprigs of dill.
