    I made the recipe for Easter dinner. I made it with a clove of garlic and forgot the thyme. I also added a teaspoon of sugar to it at the end because it was a little bitter when I gave it a taste test. The family loved it. It was done before the rest of dinner so I put it in a corelle dish and covered it with foil. It stayed crisp until we were ready to eat. Good job Rach!

    This is a fabulous recipe. It is going into our "Hall of Fame" recipe book! I made a few minor changes. I always microwave our asparagus instead of boiling it. I microwaved it on high for about 2 minutes. That makes it very crisp-tender, but everybody needs to play around with it to make it to their satisfaction. My husband and I are not very big balsamic vinegar fans, so I reduced the vinegar to only 1 tablespoon, but increased the dijon mustard to a little over 1 tablespoon. That turned out perfect for us. I have an herb garden so I was able to go out and gather our own thyme.. I just peeled if off the leaves and did not chop it. This dressing could be used for any other vegatables or even a meat dish, it is yummo!!!

    I usually love all the individual flavor components of this dish, but for some reason, the recipe didn't work for me. The oil separated from the onions, vinegar and mustard and the end result was a little greasy. Maybe next time I will mix the vinegar and mustard in a separate dish, and then add the oil to it slowly to ensure emulsification before adding it to the onions. Also, I might try roasting the asparagus instead of cooking them in boiling water in order to add another layer of flavor.

    I really liked this recipe - although it does take more than 10 minutes. I added a little garlic to it which was nice as well. I'll definitely add this one into the rotation!

    I really wanted to like this dish, as I am looking for new ways to cook asparagus. However, this is not the one. It came out very bland and boring. Easy to make, so maybe some major tweaking to get it some flavor would help. I normally love everything RR makes, but not this time.

    This was great but note, it takes WAY more than 10 minutes to caramelize onions. They need to be cooked on low heat for 40-50 minutes to really develop the sugars and break them down.
    I served the onion sauce over roasted asparagus. Thanks!

    This dish turned out really good. I think i might add a little balsamic vinegar to the dijion the next time.

    I've cooked this several times now and I think this is my favorite way to prepare asparagus. Quick, easy, and delicious.

    This is such a nice change from asparagus with bernaise. We wanted something a little lighter this time. This recipe was great, really easy, and we got rave reviews from everybody. The caramelized onions gave just the right touch. Will definitely make this again.
