  1. Loved the sauce! I steamed my asparagus instead of cooking it in boiling water. Otherwise made as posted. Everyone loved it. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. I cooked my asparagus in the oven, tossed in a little oil salt and pepper (the way we always cook it). On tasting the maple-mustard sauce, I decided it was just a bit sweet for us and added in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to the half recipe I'd made of it. That worked well for us. Thanks for posting.
     
  3. Did you know there's an asparagus.com? They want to spread the good word about the virtues of asparagus. Very thorough, but the only thing left out was that asparagus is an excellent food that easily lets nature take its course. Srsly. Made for Everyday Is A Holiday.
     
  4. We don't eat a lot of asparagus, but when we do, this is the kind of simple recipe that makes it a wonderfully satisfying experience! We really enjoyed the sauce & I'll be making this one again! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in Everyday's a Holiday tag]
     
  5. Very nice sweet and tangy taste. I had never had asparagus this way before. I was very happy with the end result :) Thanks for posting, will make this again :)
