I wish I could give this a 10! Awesome, wonderful, addictive and the best part - easy! It's even better the next day after it sits in the marinade.

This was quick, easy and tasty. Used brown sugar and did a mix of sugar snap peas and asparagus. Very delicious. Might even add sake and miso paste to the dressing next time and use as a marinade for black cod. This was really a great dressing!

I watched the show and there aren't many recipes that Alex prepares that I am allowed to eat. Loved this recipe. Served it with pan-seared salmon with an Asian marinade. The leftovers were great ona sald for lunch and even the remaining dressing was used for the sald!

So good. Next time I will halve the dressing or double the asparagus. I could have eaten the whole pound myself.

A perfect balance of ingredients makes this a great accompaniment to any Asian themed dish. I prepared this with as a side to my teriyaki salmon. I substituted honey for the sugar, as I think it goes better with Asian flavors and added a little red pepper flake to add a touch of spice to counterbalance the sweet honey. I marinated the asparagus in the sauce and roasted in the oven with the salmon. Awesome....!!!!!

The Asparagus had very good flavor and will make again. I used 2 T of sesame oil and next time I would cut back on the sesame seeds. A nice dish that can be made ahead.
