Reviews

  1. Other than using less-sodium soy sauce, made exactly as written. Just the right amount of sweet and savory.
     
  2. Delicious and easy. I left out the salt.
     
  3. Rather than roasting this, I stir fried it with a little oil. It came out pretty good!
     
  4. This was really good. I love asparagus and this was a very unique way to make it. I think this would be great with an Asian flavored chicken dish...can't wait to try it again. Made this for Zaar Stars Tag.
     
  5. I made this recipe exactly as written with no deviations. Wow! If you are looking for a new way to prepare your asparagus, I encourage you to try this recipe. I never expected the asparagus to taste so wonderful. I am not sure if it is the soy or the apricot preserves, but something or combination thereof, really brought out the natural flavor of the asparagus. I do not give many recipes 5 stars, but I have no hesitation is giving this recipe the full Monty.

Tweaks

  1. This is such a simple way to compliment a prime rib dinner. I used an apricot fruit spread in place of the preserves. Followed the rest of the instructions and the dish was ready in 15 minutes. Thanks Kitten!
