It's Spring and Asparagus is finally in season. I always look for purple buds when selecting a bundle and I'm not afraid to switch a few stalks here and there (--you are paying by the pound after all). The thing about Asparagus is: it a nice way to cleanse your palette and has a subtle sweet flavor that complements just about every Meat, Grain or Protein. This Ginger Asparagus recipe is a great way to bring out all the flavors of your main.
Ginger Asparagus Recipe
Ingredients
1 tbs of sesame seeds
PAM
1 clove garlic minced
2 inch piece of fresh ginger minced
1 bundle of Asparagus trimmed and washed
1/2 tsp sugar
2 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp soy sauce
pepper to taste
Preparation
Heat wok and toast sesame seeds and remove from heat when seeds are golden (if you can find already toasted sesame seeds, congratulations--you just knocked off 5 minutes of cooking time). Heat wok and spray with PAM. Add garlic, ginger (I do not suggest using bottled garlic and ginger) and Asparagus. Add sugar and pepper--stir to cover. When Asparagus turns evenly bright green remove from heat. Add a dash of sesame oil, soy sauce and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
