Alternatively, you can cook the asparagus in steaming bags for 2 minutes and 30 seconds instead of blanching in water.
In a small dish (a square one works well for dipping), beat the 2 eggs with the 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, 1 1/2 teaspoons parsley, and 1/2 cup grating cheese until well combined.
On your counter or work surface, lay out two paper dishes or sheets of wax paper. Place the bowl with the egg mixture between them.
