POSTED: 1:43 pm HST June 30, 2009

This recipe was originally for regular asparagus, but I found delicious Sea Asparagus at Down To Earth. Try this great vegetable.

Ingredients:

1 package Sea Asparagus (about 2 cups)

1 large vine ripe tomato

3 TBS tamari or soy

3 TBS rice vinegar

1 1/2 TBS vegetable oil

1 clove garlic minced

1 tsp minced ginger

1-2 TBS sugar

pinch of chili paste (to taste)

1 TBS toasted sesame seeds

Directions:

Place sea asparagus in a pot of salted boiling water for about 1-2 minutes. Remove, drain and place in ice water.

Whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, oil, garlic, ginger, sugar, and chili paste.

Dice the tomato and combine with the drained sea asparagus in a bowl. Add dressing and toss. Top with sesame seeds.
