Description
xOcado Asparagus Tips. Asparagus tips have bright green spears, with a light purple tinge at the top end. They are the tender, top portion of the asparagus spear and offer a delightful flavour and texture that's distinct from the rest of the stalk.
They have a more delicate and subtly sweet flavour compared to the rest of the spear and the sweetness is often described as being similar to green peas or sweetcorn. They have less of the grassy bitterness that can sometimes be present in the stalk and the texture is incredibly tender, often melting in your mouth when cooked properly.
Serve it as a delicate 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. Fine asparagus 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 between Mexico, Peru and the UK.
