Asparagus...and blackberries?
We had our bi-monthly wine club get-together this evening, and we hosted. Our wines were from Burgundy and I wanted the menu to be as well. During our visit to Burgundy, we had asparagus with a sauce that was clearly mayonnaise based but fruity as well--raspberry maybe? I had fresh blackberries that I had cooked earlier this morning with a bit of sugar, and then pressed through a sieve to remove the seeds. Basically I had a blackberry coulis. I combined it with homemade mayonnaise--2 parts mayo to 1 part blackberry. With peeled, cooked, and cooled asparagus spears, it was a lovely starter to our meal.
