Anthony Genovese's recipe: coconut, asparagus and black mustard

Every spring, Chef Genovese seeks the enhancement of at least one dish on the Menu that is vegetarian and/or vegan in origin and that maximally expresses the value of a product that follows seasonality and freshness, such as both white and green asparagus. In this case, however, the key was the monochrome dictated by the white color given naturally by white asparagus, coconut and garlic.
