[recipe] Oriental Asparagus Salad ~ vegan

[Guest guest]

This salad is so good and if you love asparagus

season, you will surely want to give it a try.

Now, i have used sesame oil instead of peanut.

And, if you have rice vinegar, you can use that

and you won't need to add any sugar to the dish.
