Miso Glazed Asparagus

Ingredients

• 400 g Asparagus
• 1.5 tbsp White Miso
• 2 tsp Soy Sauce
• 1 tsp Rice Vinegar
• 1 tsp Honey
• 1 tbsp Neutral Oil
• 1 tsp Sesame Oil
• 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds
• 0.75 tsp Kosher Salt

Method

1. In a small bowl, whisk {white_miso}, {soy_sauce}, {rice_vinegar}, and {honey} until smooth and glossy.
2. Toast {sesame_seeds} in a small dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, shaking often, until golden and fragrant, then transfer to a plate so they do not overdarken.
3. Heat the oven or broiler. On a sheet pan, toss {asparagus} with {neutral_oil} and {kosher_salt}, then brush with {white_miso} glaze for an even coating that will caramelize rather than burn.
4. Roast or broil the {asparagus} on the upper rack until crisp-tender and lightly charred at the tips, watching closely so the glaze turns glossy and browned but not scorched.
5. Transfer the hot {asparagus} to a platter, drizzle with {sesame_oil}, scatter over {sesame_seeds}, and taste for more {kosher_salt} to brighten the glaze.
