Ocado Asparagus. Bright green spears, with a light purple tinge at the top end and a pale green / white base, this asparagus has a distinct grassy flavour. It's reminiscent of green beans or peas, with a slightly bitter edge that is particularly enjoyable during the spring season. The texture is tender and slightly crisp without being stringy, when cooked properly.
Serve it as a versatile side dish alongside grilled fish, roasted chicken, or other light mains. Add raw or lightly blanched to salads for a touch of freshness, add chopped to risotto for a subtle flavour and tender texture and incorporate it into pasta dishes with light sauces or pesto. Asparagus also pairs well with various flavours including butter, lemon juice, Hollandaise sauce and Parmesan cheese.
Asparagus is usually available as asparagus, asparagus tips or fine asparagus, and your preference will likely depend on your cooking and presentation methods.
Country of origin may vary due to seasonality, specifically between Mexico, Peru and the UK.
