Preparation

Step 1

Snap off tough ends of asparagus, and remove scales with a knife or vegetable peeler, if desired. Place asparagus spears and water in a shallow microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave at HIGH 2-4 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender, drain. Return asparagus to dish.

Combine vinegar and next 3 ingredients in a small bowl, stir with a whisk until mixture is blended. Pour vinegar mixture over asparagus, turning asparagus to coat. Cover and marinate in refrigerator at least 2 hours, turning asparagus occasionally.
