For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the asparagus before adding it to the salad. This imparts a smoky char that complements the other ingredients beautifully. If you prefer a tangier dressing, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Conversely, a touch of honey can balance the acidity if desired. Feel free to experiment with other herbs, such as mint or basil, to create your own unique flavor profile.
