To think that asparagus is the most gorgeous, sexy, sensual, delicious, wonderful...

[SaggyCeratops]

Orgasmic vegetable EVER!

YABU. It's fucking vile.

N.O.T!

It can be divine, but YABU to wax lyrical about it.

What is food for, if not to be passionate about??

It tastes of grass and makes your wee smell odd

Very much so, bar the wee smell.

Was a bit pissed off in Tesco to see Local or UK produce sold along side
asparagus from Peru !!!!!

This should put you off lybio.net/courtney-stodden-veggies-are-sexy/people/

Sorry Gis, I can't cut and paste that on my iPhone. Could you repost it with the [[?

Yeah, sorry about that, was too early for full function :)

wtf were her parents thinking

White or green?

Naice ham, white asparagus, hollondaise sauce and rosemary potatoes = heaven.

YANBU! Delicious with salty butter or a dippy egg (duck egg even better). I need to go and get some for lunch.

Nope - I love savoury umami stuff, but it just tastes bitter and meh. And i am a vegan - I loooove vegetables.

Except Fennel, which is just evil and shouldn't even count as a vegetable.

I was only saying to DH last weekend that asparagus is definitely over-rated.

Don't get me wrong, it's nice enough, but I don't get why some people think it's the best thing ever.
And I hate runny eggs, so telling me to dip it in egg definitely won't do the trick!

god I love asparagus - my oh is making himself and ds some with poached egg, parma ham and parmesan this week - I will just have the egg and parmesan as veggie -it is scrummy!

we had some at a restaurant and I gave a bit to dd and ds... mil thought it was a waste...

.

Gutted that local asparagus crop was rained off .

Baby DS (9mo) is an asparagus junkie. Yes, the nappies are, ahem, fun!

Cant decide psammead on white or green! I always under or overcook the white so have bought more green this season. But both are delicious.

Mmmmm griddled asparagus with scrambled egg with smoked salmon in- heaven on a plate!!

Sounds good with poached eggs as well...will have to try it

I have never tasted it, Can you describe it?

One of those things I keep meaning to try but never remember to pick up when I'm shopping.

MrsP you need to try properly fresh out of the field stuff - supermarket stuff is indeed bitter by comparison

You can't describe it, you need to try it!

it's got a nice texture- bit crunchy bit juicy. That's the nice bit. Peas and beans taste better IMO.
