ASPARAGUS 900G

Landes asparagus is the queen of spring. It grows under the sand between March and May. Like the swallows, it signifies spring and announces the return of sunny days. Our canned 900 asparagus for sale online will delight you with its slightly nutty taste. A short-cycle vegetable, canning has always been a way to extend its short consumption period.

 We receive them fresh, they are then peeled, peeled by us, blanched (dipped in boiling water), then decorated with a little sugar and lemon, they keep perfectly. We must cook them as soon as they arrive in order to retain as many vitamins as possible. It is at the end of the harvest, once it has cooled, that we select the most beautiful asparagus to be put in jars the next day. Asparagus likes heat, humidity and sand, three parameters which allow it to show its white head between the months of March and May. Asparagus is harvested at three different stages of maturity: - When they barely emerge from the ground, they are white, sweet and melting. -After a day of sun, they are purple, firmer and more bitter. -then, they become green, crunchy but with a grassy taste. They are packaged fresh, by stage of maturity and by caliber (size), grouped into bunches. We cook them in different ways: natural only with cooking juice and lemon, in very pleasant wedges in salad or as an aperitif for their tender side, or in velouté to start the dinner well. It also goes perfectly with poultry or white meat.

 Preparation advice: Drain your asparagus gently but do not rinse it. Pour them into an asparagus dish and enjoy them with mayonnaise or a good homemade balsamic vinegar vinaigrette. You can easily make the traditional Landes salad with a slice of whole foie gras from the South West, or in an omelette with a few chanterelles.
