New Season English Asparagus

Posted on 19/05/2010 by cwildman

I know English Asparagus has been available for a couple of weeks now but couldn’t resist trying simple Asparagus and Hollandaise last week at the Craven Arms, Giggleswick.

Simple & just delicious…

Asparagus Tip! don’t cut off the ends, just hold both ends and bend and the asparagus will break above the woody stem, keep these for soup and eat the tip end as above!

      Some English growers have already started to crop early Asparagus but the season should start in the next couple of weeks, middle of April through May.
