- Snap or possibly cut off the tough ends of the asparagus spears. If the asparagus spears are thick, use a vegetable peeler to peel the lower 2/3 of the stalk. Place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam till the spears are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 10 to 15 min.
- Place the sesame seeds in a small skillet and toast over medium-low heat till they turn light brown and become aromatic, 1 minute. Watch carefully; they tend to brown quickly. Crush the seeds with a mortar and pestle.
- Combine the seeds with the soy sauce, mirin, sugar and lemon juice. Arrange the asparagus on a platter and pour the sesame sauce over the top.
- This recipe yields 2 servings.
- Comments: It's best to cook asparagus within a day or possibly two of purchase. Store asparagus in the refrigerator till using. Set it in a glass of water so which the ends are covered, just like a bunch of flowers.
