 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2      pounds        Fresh asparagus -- washed well
                         cut into 1" pieces
    1                    Red pepper -- seeded and cut
          in 1" pcs.
    1                    Red onion -- chopped
      1/2  cup           Raspberry vinegar
      1/2  cup           Water
    1      tablespoon    Sugar or honey
    1      teaspoon      Parsley
 
 Steam the asparagus pieces for 2 minutes.  Plunge into cold water to stop
 cooking.  Drain.
 
 Put asparagus, red pepper and onion into a plastic bowl (with cover). Blend
 vinegar, water, sugar (honey) and parsley in a separate bowl and then pour
 over vegetables.  Adjust seasonings if desired (may want to add more
 sweetness).  Stir, cover and refrigerate for at least 24 hours. Stir every
 so often.
 
 Serve cold as a side salad.
