Directions
Wash asparagus and snap off tough ends. Cut on the diagonal into 1” long pieces. Scrub potatoes and cut into small cubes. Bring a medium size pot of salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and potatoes and cook until potatoes are fork tender, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the dressing: In large bowl, whisk together the Star White Wine Vinegar, Dijon Mustard, honey, tarragon, and salt and pepper. Drizzle in the Star Extra Virgin Olive Oil while continuing to whisk.

When the vegetables are tender, drain and add to dressing immediately. Toss well and allow to marinate for about 5 or 10 minutes. Grate or finely chop 2 of the hard-boiled eggs and add to salad, toss to incorporate. Divide among 2 plates or shallow bowls and garnish with remaining eggs, quartered.

Finish with freshly grated black pepper. Server warm or at room temperature.
