We’re just obsessed with using asparagus as a condiment! Try sprinkling this crunchy mix over eggs or tossing it into pasta.

1 pound asparagus, trimmed, thinly sliced crosswise (about 2 cups)

2 scallions, white and pale-green parts only, thinly sliced on a diagonal

2 (2x1-inch) strips lemon zest, thinly sliced lengthwise

1 garlic clove, finely grated

2 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro

2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar

1 teaspoon finely grated green chile (such as serrano or jalapeño)

Generous pinch of kosher salt

Pinch of sugar

Place asparagus in a medium bowl, add ice water to cover, and swirl asparagus with your hands. Drain through a fine-mesh sieve and return asparagus to bowl. Repeat process 2 more times (this will keep asparagus crunchy). Pat dry; wipe out bowl.
Toss asparagus, scallions, lemon zest, garlic, cilantro, vinegar, and chile in dry bowl to combine. Add salt and sugar and toss again to combine.
