Crisp-tender roasted asparagus meets a creamy, lemony Greek Freak aioli that makes every spear worth dunking twice. Spiceology Greek Freak Rub brings herby Mediterranean depth to a simple aioli that doubles as a great dip for everything else on the table. Pull this together in under 20 minutes and watch it disappear from the platter.
