We really enjoyed the flavors...so easy to prepare...I cooked it in the oven at a higher temp for less time due to my other dish that was sharing the oven...loved that you can cook it to your liking...we enjoy a slight bite to the stems and that's what we got...thanks for posting the recipe =)

This tasted terrific. My husband even liked snacking on it raw.

This asparagus recipe was really easy to make and tasted very nice. I made mine in the oven. I used San-J low sodium soy, so I added a little salt to the finished dish after tasting. Followed all directions and ingredients as posted. We served this as a side to Recipe #370930 370930. Thanks! Made for ZWT5.

This recipe is soooo good! I was a little leery about it when I smelled them cooking because the sesame oil smell was really strong, but they were perfect! I did sprinkle a little salt on them before I put them in the oven. Yum! Made for ZWT5 - Epicurean Queens
