This was really nice! After my first bite I was like, oh ok not bad but nothing special. But I liked it more and more as I kept eating and wished I had more! I marinated it for 24 hours and I didn't find it too strong at all. I did adjust/eyeball the measurements though (I only had a small amount of asparagus, so I didn't want to make the full marinade amount) so maybe I ended up adding more oil or less vinegar. I would definitely make this again!

I could not eat this but Hubs liked it. I will not make it again. Bummer- I was really wanting a cold asparagus salad recipe.

Tasted good... But I'm not one of those great pre-planners, so some time I need to make it 24 hrs ahead and see if it's better! Did it a second time and used broccoli and asparagus, then grilled... WOW!

Tweeked it quite a bit so it's not fair to say I didn't like THIS recipe. Do NOT marinate for 24 hrs. WAY, WAY too long....strong flavor. Used slivered almonds instead.....just okay for me...probably would not make again.

very good, a little salty. Pecans are a great addition. I've made them twice so far and will be making again.

The flavor of the marinade/asparagus was great but i found my asparagus looking very unappetizing. Some had an odd brown color and looked a lil slimey.Maybe i will cut the marinating time to just a few hrs next time. The pecans didnt really go well with the aspargus either. Looked nice on top but that was about it.

I brought this to a party and got rave reviews. I did tweek the recipe just a bit. I used toasted sesame oil instead of vegetable oil, added some garlic and minced ginger to the marinade. I also let it marinade and extra 12 hours. This is a definite keeper.
