Ingredients
- 1 cup balsamic vinegar (doesn't have to be expensive brand)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1½ pounds asparagus
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- sea salt
Instructions
- Combine vinegar, brown sugar, and soy sauce in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until thick and syrupy, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- While glaze is cooking, remove tough ends from asparagus, then toss with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Lay flat on a foil lined baking sheet and roast at 400 degrees until asparagus is cooked, 10-20 minutes depending on how soft you like it. To serve, drizzle a small amount of balsamic glaze over the spears and pass extra at the table.
