Cold Asian Asparagus
An effort:flavor ratio winner from my friend, Susan Richardson - one of the best home cooks I know!
3 Tablespoons soy sauce
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
Toasted sesame seeds to taste
2-3 lbs asparagus, blanched
In a small bowl combine the first 4 ingredients. Pour over blanched asparagus (either when still hot or right before serving). Chill either way and top with sesame seeds before serving.
