FRESH ASPARAGUS SALAD

As a separate salad course, this will serve 4. As part of a Chinese meal (page 120), it will serve 6 to 8.

1 1/2 to 2 pounds of young, fresh asparagus, each stalk no more than 1/2 inch in diameter
4 teaspoons soy sauce

1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons sesame-seed oil

PREPARE AHEAD:

1. Bend each asparagus stalk back until the tough root end snaps away. Discard the ends. Slice the remaining stalks in 1 1/2-inch lengths, using the roll-cut method: that is, making a diagonal slice through one end of the stalk, then rolling the stalk a quarter turn and slicing again. There should be about J cups of asparagus pieces.

2. Wash the asparagus under cold running water and parboil the pieces by dropping them into 2 quarts of rapidly boiling water for 1 minute. Drain at once, and run cold water over the asparagus to stop their cooking and set their color. Spread them on a double thickness of paper towels and pat them completely dry.

TO ASSEMBLE:

In a small glass bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar and sesame-seed oil, and mix until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the asparagus. With a large spoon, toss to coat each asparagus piece thoroughly with the dressing. Chill slightly; no longer than 2 hours-before serving.

As a separate salad course, this will serve 4. As part of a Chinese meal (page 120), it will serve 6 to 8.
