1. Snap the tough ends off the asparagus. Blanch the spears in boiling water until just crisp-tender, 1-2 minutes, depending on size. Drain, refresh under cold water, and pat dry. Set aside.
2. Place 2 roasted pepper halves in the center of each of the 4 plates, then arrange 8 spears asparagus, 2 per side, in a log-cabin fashion to frame the peppers on each plate. Drizzle the vegetables evenly with cider vinaigrette.
3. Poach the eggs in water mixed with the vinegar, following the instructions above. Place the eggs atop the peppers in the center of the asparagus frame.
4. Sprinkle with the chopped shallots, a grind of black pepper, and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
