Make the most of this seasonal star with these light and delicious recipes. Asparagus is super versatile. They can be enjoyed as raw with some of your favourite dips, or grilled, stir-fried, blanched, steamed or baked. If your green asparagus is young and the spears are slim, all you need to do just give it a good wash before cooking and trim the very ends. With larger and thicker green asparagus, you can break these off. There's a natural breaking point between the woody end and the tender stalk. I usually just slice off 1.5cm from the bottom. The skin of white asparagus can taste very bitter and fibrous, so make sure to peel it off completely before cooking.

- Fast-fried Asparagus With XO Sauce
Asparagus is one of the most nutritionally well-balanced vegetables, which is high in "folic acid" and is a good source of "potassium, fiber, vitamin B6, vitamins A and C, and thiamin". Moreover, asparagus has no fat, no cholesterol and is quite low in calories and sodium. It is very popular in Europe, especially Germany where promotions, creative events, and festivals are held to honour the arrival of what's crowned as "Königliches Gemüse" - royal vegetable.

- Blanched Asparagus with Caviar Cream Sauce
Caviar Cream Sauce is an ultimate sign of decadence and deliciousness. This sauce is incredibly rich and to cut through the richness, I balanced the sauce out with a simple blanched asparagus. I used dry white wine for the sauce, but if you have some Champagne or dry sparkling wine, feel free to use it. If using alcohol is not an option, you can try using sparkling cider, but the sauce will taste sweeter then. It's important to fold caviar into the sauce after it has cooled a bit or it would ruin the caviar.

- White Asparagus with Saffron Silky Tofu Dressing
White asparagus must be peeled, as the outside is fibrous and bitter. They have an earthier, nuttier and sweeter flavour than the usual green variety, and can be enjoyed raw or cooked. Though white asparagus is traditionally served very simply, just with parsley potatoes and a generous helping of melted butter or a velvety Hollandaise sauce, this vegan saffron flavoured silken tofu dressing is just as amazing.

Rather fond of asparagus particularly soup.
A lot of lovely recipes you have there Angie. Well done.
We take full advantage of asparagus at this time of year. We had it for dinner last night in fact. We make an Asian dish, called quite simply, Asparagus Chicken and it is delicious - and very simple.
Thank you for compiling the asparagus recipes for the readers. I do love them a lot around this season when they are tender. All the recipes look worth trying at least once.
Angie, Looking over this plethora of asparagus related recipes was pure torture. I love this vegetable but can't eat it with the meds I'm taking. You have listed some amazing recipes... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
Such a richness and variety of dishes with asparagus!

Jenna
It is finally asparagus season here. This wonderful collection will be referred to often.
First, I’m so sorry. I’m doing all these comments at once. I was having a lot of trouble in France leaving comments, though I read every recipe. Speaking of France, it was asparagus season there, and we made the best of it! (Although I was really surprised to find how expensive it was…) Mark and I made the asparagus with black forest ham last evening (now back in the United States) and it was fantastic! The rest of the black forest ham will get used for Galettes de Sarrasin. David (C&L)
@Anonymous I am just happy that you are able to comment now :-)) And yes, good asparagus are expensive over here too.
I've loved seeing so many of these as they've been posted, and they're so special all together like this. I think a "Most Creative Asparagus Recipes" book should be in your future. They're all beautiful. :-) ~Valentina
These are some amazing Asparagus recipes...thanks for sharing dear :-)
