- Peel the white asparagus from just below the head down to the end; trim about 1-2 cm off the woody ends.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the asparagus for 8-15 minutes until tender, depending on thickness; meanwhile, hard-boil the eggs for 9-10 minutes, then cool and peel them.
- While the asparagus cooks, finely chop the hard-boiled eggs and fresh parsley.
- In a small saucepan, gently melt the unsalted butter over low heat until just liquid.
- Drain the cooked asparagus well and arrange it on serving plates. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the melted butter evenly over the asparagus, then generously sprinkle with the chopped hard-boiled eggs and fresh parsley.
- Serve immediately as a main course or elegant side dish.
