Asparagus!

[shyvas]

They are in season and plentiful at the moment. I like mine to be green and to be served simply steamed or boiled with a drizzle of evo and a sprinkle of Cornish sea salt. I also like them grilled.

^They are $1.69 for a 16 oz pack at my local Aldi store this week. I need to stock up.

They were priced at € 2.50 per bundle at the local supermarket. Anyway, I'm looking forward to eating some asparagus.

In my top 5 favorite vegetables.
I like them lightly steamed with no additives. I like them warm but I think they're just as good cold or even better chilled.

I had white asparagus in Germany where it's called Spargel. It seemed less bitter than the green kind. I don't mind asparagus if it comes with a meal or in a recipe, but I don't go out of my way to prepare it.

I've actually been thinking about tracking down and buying an asparagus steamer.... just what my overloaded kitchen needs... another item specific cooking implement.

Ah, asparagus, Queen of the Spring Vegetables, how I love you.

Time to stock up on those green woody delights.

Not yet. We're still eating carrots, cabbage and fennel.
