List of Ingredients




1 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tbsp. rice vinegar
1 tbsp. peanut oil
1 tbsp. water
1 tbsp. tahini (pureed sesame seeds)
1 tsp. chopped fresh ginger
1/2 tsp. chopped garlic

Recipe



In a food processor, combine everything except the asparagus and mix until thoroughly blended. Set aside. Cut the asparagus into two-inch pieces, on the diagonal. Half fill large skillet with water, cover and bring to a boil. Add the asparagus and simmer just until crisp-tender, approximately four to five minutes. Drain well but do not rinse. Transfer to serving bowl. Pour the sauce over the hot asparagus and toss to coat. Serve warm or at room temperature.
