Add potatoes to a pot and cover well with water and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer until fork tender. Meanwhile, bring another pot of water to the boil, blanch the asparagus for approx. 2 -3 min., until it’s cooked through, but still has some bite to it. Scoop out with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl of cold or iced water. Use the same water to blanch the peas for approx. 2 min., then drain and add to the bowl with the asparagus.

To make the dressing, zest and juice the lemon and add to a large bowl (big enough to toss the salad in). Next, add honey, white wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and half of the chopped herbs and scallions. Add peas, drained potatoes, and toss well. Let sit for 10. min to marinate. Mix Greek yogurt with horseradish in a small bowl and season it with salt and pepper.
