Asparagus Oeuf Vinaigrette is a classic French dish that has been enjoyed for generations. Its origins can be traced back to the early 20th century when asparagus became a popular vegetable in France.
Asparagus is grown in various regions of France, with the most notable being the Loire Valley, Alsace, Gard, and the also in the Gironde and Landes departments. Together they account for over half of the output of Asparagus in France.
Asparagus is not only delicious but also incredibly healthy. It is a great source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and is low in calories.
In this recipe, I’ll be using white asparagus but you can also use green asparagus, Both are delicious but usually, it’s the green asparagus that’s more readily available in most grocery stores. The dish is also incredibly easy to prepare, making it a perfect option for a quick and healthy meal.
