Miso has a rich taste, which is perfect for asparagus. This recipe has a nice Asian flavor and I like to serve this especially with teriyaki steak or salmon, and a crisp green salad. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs fresh asparagus spears |
1 tablespoon oil |
salt |
3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar |
2 tablespoons light miso |
2 tablespoons water |
2 teaspoons sesame oil |
1 teaspoon beet sugar (or granulated sugar) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Bend asparagus gently and allow to snap where they naturally break; discard end pieces.
3. Lay asparagus on a roasting pan, and drizzle with oil and lightly sprinkle with salt.
4. Roast for 20 minutes or until they are cooked through but not soft, shaking the pan mid-way through cooking.
5. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
6. Whisk together the rice vinegar, miso, water, sesame oil, and sugar, until sugar is dissolved and everything is thoroughly combined.
7. Drizzle dressing over cool asparagus and allow to marinate at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving.
