Asparagus is a great food for Spring. Enjoy steamed asparagus with this healthy flax and turmeric dressing drizzled on top brought to us by lydiabily on EHow.

1. Step 1

   Peel the garlic cloves and cut off the ends. Mince the garlic or press it through a garlic press.

2. Step 2

   In a glass bowl or container, mix the oil, vinegars and tamari soy sauce. Adjust the amounts slightly to taste, but be careful not to overdo it, especially on the tamari. If you don’t have tamari soy sauce, you can substitute miso or sea salt.

3. Step 3

   Add the garlic and turmeric to the dressing and stir vigorously or put in a bottle and shake.

4. Step 4

   Serve with salad, cooked greens, raw vegetables, bean salads or grain dishes. But use it sparingly — this is strongly flavored and a little goes a long way.

5. Step 5

   Store any extra salad dressing in the refrigerator. It keeps well. Just mix it again before serving.
