Notes
The asian sauce is good to for any steamed vegetable. Our favorite is green beans for sure but broccoli and cauliflower are close behind. If you'd like to make the asian sauce without any heat, skip the sriracha sauce. We are pretty big fans of the spicy asian sauce on our steamed green beans and recommend this recipe to everybody that loves incredible flavor and needs a side dish.
