Tis the season for Farm Fresh Asparagus! We’re so excited they’re back at the Farmers’ Market each Sunday until the end of the season!
Here are a few tips from your grower, Maria (she’s been growing asparagus for 30 years so she knows a thing or two!).
1: Store Asparagus in the refrigerator in a jar with the cut ends in a little water.
2: Look for closed tips when selecting asparagus.
3: If the end seems a little ‘woody’ don’t discard it, simple cut off the dry end and peel the bottom 1/3 of the stalk, then cook as usual.
4: If blanching, do so in salted water until al dente.
5: Finally, Asparagus and bacon stir fried together is phenomenal!
Enjoy while the season lasts!
