Directions

Steam the asparagus spears until their texture is crisp-tender and they are bright green.
Immediately drain the asparagus spears and rinse them under cold water, then cover and refrigerate until they are chilled.
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise with the mustard and lemon juice and blend the mixture well, then stir in ½ teaspoon of lemon peel and set aside.
Divide the chilled asparagus and between 2 plates, then spoon 2 tablespoons of lemon-mustard dressing over the top of each serving, and sprinkle ¼ teaspoon lemon peel over each serving.
