2. Cooking Directions
- Whisk together vinegar, lemon juice, truffle, kosher salt, and pepper to taste. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking. Whisk in broth and season with more salt and pepper if necessary.

3. Still Hungry?
White asparagus has a delicate flavor that works especially well with our truffle vinaigrette, but try the dish with green asparagus, too.
