Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then add salt. Reduce the heat so the water is just simmering, and let the potatoes cook until just tender when a fork is inserted into the center, about 12 to 14 minutes. Drain and let them cool.

  2. Step 2

    Combine the shallots, parsley, vinegar, mayonnaise and mustard in a medium-size bowl and mix well. Fold in the capers and season with salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Cube the potatoes, put them into a large bowl, and add about three-quarters of the dressing. Turn several times to mix well. Just before serving, add the mussels, asparagus and remaining dressing and toss again. Garnish with chopped parsley.
