Recipe Introduction

List of Ingredients




1 pound (480 g) fresh asparagus spears
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons low-sodium tamari soy sauce
1 teaspoon mirin (Japanese seasoning wine


Recipe



1 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (225 degrees C). Snap off woody ends of asparagus spears. If spears are thick, peel them from the base to the flower end using a vegetable peeler.
2 Toss the asparagus with oil and spread in an even layer in a shallow roasting pan. Roast, turning spears once or twice, for 8 to 12 minutes (depending on thickness), or until the thick part of stalks can be pierced easily with a knife.
3 After roasting, toss with soy sauce and mirin.
