1 bunch thin asparagus -- trimmed

1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce

1/2 cup plain rice vinegar

In a covered steamer or saucepan, steam the asparagus over boiling water until

seeds.

 

Description:

" This dish provides a mouth-pleasing sensation of crisp and crunch,

plus dipping ease. Lightly steamed stalks are dipped in soy and

vinegar, then in toasted sesame. "
