What You'll Need
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Trim the asparagus, snapping off any woody ends, and cut the asparagus into bite-size pieces. Trim the sugar snaps, removing any tough strings if necessary, and cut them into bite-size pieces. Pick the mint, toss the stems, and chop the leaves (you should have about 1 cup).
Step 2
Add the asparagus and sugar snaps to the boiling water and blanch until bright green and tender-crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. (If you receive English peas, shell the peas and cook them until bright green, 1 to 2 minutes.) Drain the vegetables and rinse under cold water until cool.
Step 3
Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl or platter. Add the mint and microgreens, drizzle with â…“ cup of the vinaigrette, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with feta, grind with pepper, and serve.
