When I'm 'desperate' for some--I will get the 'canned stuff Have DH so well trained now that he ALWAYS checks out the Fresh veggies to see if there is any available-AND he makes sure it isn't the 'tuff' stuff : ) with there being so much 'stuff' I can't have --asparagus is quite a treat ; ) Butterfly (got DH a 'bottle of Pickled Asparagus'-- been awhile since I saw it but I think it had ONE stalk of "Asparagus in Tequila' for his 'collection of odd foods'--has it at work) Donna in Idaho (remove invalid)" wrote in message ...

The skinny little young asparagus stalks are wonderful raw. The big fat old ones definitely need cooked IMHO. Young asparagus is melt in your mouth tender even when raw. after the plants are about 5+ years old, they tend to come up tougher. A lot of old gardeners I have known say that asparagus is not edible until the plant is at least 7 years old. They are wrong about that, you can harvest asparagus after 3 years (from seed) but you hurt your yield by not waiting longer. NightMist did I mention that I adore asparagus?
