From the Test Kitchen

For this flavorful salad, you'll quickly blanch asparagus (to preserve their delicate crunch and bright color), then toss them with a mix of arugula, spinach, tomatoes, roasted peppers, and a creamy honey-dijon dressing. To top it off, you'll soft-boil eggs until the yolks are perfectly jammy, then sprinkle it all with sunflower seeds and fresh chives.

Roughly chop the peppers.

Carefully add the eggs to the pot of boiling water and cook 7 minutes for soft-boiled, or until your desired degree of doneness. Leaving the pot of water boiling, using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer the eggs to a strainer and rinse under cold water 30 seconds to 1 minute to stop the cooking process. When cool enough to handle, carefully peel the cooked eggs. Quarter lengthwise; season with salt and pepper.
