Good to know…
Sesame oil lends a surprising flavour to this sauce, which enhances the taste of the asparagus.
This sauce can also be used as an accompaniment to shrimp.
Never underestimate asparagus.
Preparation
Rinse the asparagus and break off the stems.
Cook in a large pot with salted water for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the size of the asparagus. Using the tip of a paring knife, ensure they remain firm. When ready, rinse them under cold water and drain.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Arrange the asparagus on a serving plate and serve with the dipping sauce.
