I love asparagus! I had some today - the thin, green variety. I've never had white asparagus that I've liked. I had it in Germany and didn't think it tasted like anything! Lol! But green is yummy. I soak it in boiled water to cook it - must be al denté - and serve with butter, salt and pepper. Grilled on the BBQ is also nice. Ahhh....foods of spring and summer!

Oh yes, grilled on the BBQ. Your recipe sounds delicious. The white ones can be quite bland. You really need to find ones that came from good "terroir". They need to have flavour. Thanks for stopping by, Lisa.

Asparagus is one of my fave veggies. I prefer the very thin green ones, steamed, with a little sauce made from mustard and mayo. White asparagus is tasty, though.

Oh yes. That sounds lovely. In France you can buy that sauce ready-made. It's delicious.
