Roasted Salmon & Asparagus with Sauce Gribiche

Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.

Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a large saucepan fitted with a steamer basket. Carefully add eggs, cover and steam for 10 minutes. Immediately transfer to a large bowl of ice water.

Meanwhile, place salmon on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with 2 teaspoons oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Toss asparagus with 1 teaspoon oil on another rimmed baking sheet. Roast the salmon on the upper rack until cooked through and the center is opaque, 8 to 12 minutes, depending on thickness. Roast the asparagus on the lower rack until bright green and tender-crisp, about 8 minutes.

Peel the eggs and place in a medium bowl. Coarsely mash with a potato masher or fork. Stir in vinegar, parsley, capers, cornichons and mustard along with the remaining 5 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Serve the salmon and asparagus with the sauce.
