Here’s a bonus post of brown sugar salmon and asparagus we did a week or so ago. We had gone to Hong Kong Market on the West Bank (see below), and I bought 1.75 pounds of salmon for about $10 (it was $6 a pound). I made some lox, but I saved some salmon for this dinner. 

My girlfriend cooked the salmon in butter and made a brown sugar sauce. I just microwave steamed some asparagus. 

Butter and Salmon. What a combination!:)

This piece was bigger so we had to cook it a bit longer. We decided to do the sauce in the mean time.

I just put some water in the asparagus in a micro-wave safe container and placed a wet paper towel on top. Microwaved on high for about 2-4 minutes (depending on how big the asparaguses are, and on personal preference).

This was a very nice easy dinner. I think the only thing that would have made this better if I had a cream cheese mustard sauce or goat cheese sauce for the asparagus.

p.s. I do know that asparagus is singular and plural, but I looked it up and asparaguses is actually the plural of asparagus. We just say asparagus when we mean more than one stalk. So why do I say asparaguses? I just like saying it more … asparaguses … :)
