Yum! I love asparagus so thanks for the recipes! I think you should get your “muddy” hands on “The Victory Garden Cookbook”. It’s delightfully filled with all sorts of recipes (in order according to each veggie/fruit/etc.) from your garden. A bit pricey, but I found it worth every penny. Blessings Quinn. 🙂
I’ve tried to grow asparagus a few times, but something ALWAYS sneaks about in the night and eats it :/ So for now I’m stuck with store-bought, but it gives me hope for how amazing your asparagus will taste fresh out of the garden!
Quinn, Asparagus straight from the ground is amazing. I love them prepared all kinds of ways, but nothing beats a salad with all garden fresh ingredients and raw asparagus to top it off. It seems like asparagus emerges much earlier where you are. Here it pops up around very late May or June.
I have no idea when it will come up LOL! It could be May or June for all I know- I just always thought it was the first thing to produce and since this is my first year with our own asparagus, I may be more eager than I ought to be. No sign of it yet. Lots of Canadian thistle though. Too bad that’s not edible 🙂
Quinn, thanks for including my recipe! I loved this roundup honoring the oft-overlooked asparagus…. will be sharing on Facebook this week.
You forgot bacon wrapped asparagus. Wrap about three spears with two pieces of bacon. Lay on grill. Cook until bacon is done. Delicious.
How on earth was that even possible for me to overlook that?!! That’s the first way I ever ate asparagus and couldn’t believe I had gone over 2 decades of my life without it! Looks like it’s a good thing I did 35+ to allow me to make some additions 😉
So…which one if these would you suggest for someone who refuses to eat asparagus? I haven’t bought any in a long time because hubby doesn’t like it (or says he doesn’t, anyway – I have a hard time believing people when they tell me they don’t like it, haha!) but I just got a bunch in my CSA order. Thanks! (^_^)
Wrap it in thin bacon or proscuitto! I mentioned in another comment that I couldn’t believe I left that one off the list. It’s how I was introduced to the vegetable and it’s still one of my favorite ways! Hope you find a recipe that strikes gold 🙂
I once read about dried asparagus. do you know anything about this method of preserving and how to enjoy, if possible, this form of the most delightful vegetable on earth.
I pickle mine and love it
Sounds amazing!
