Recipe

Thai asparagus are varieties that maintain their quintessential textural and flavor qualities even at mature sizes. They are firm in texture with balsam aromatics and their flavor is grassy, nutty, and earthy-sweet.
Discard the lower parts as they are more fibrous and woody. Thai asparagus can be sauteed, steamed, boiled, baked, and fried. Spring ingredients such as morel mushrooms, green garlic, fennel, leeks, young lettuces, and citruses such as lemon and grapefruit are the most suitable pairings.
Place the asparagus (cut stems down) in a glass jar or cup filled with about two inches of water. And loosely cover the exposed asparagus with a plastic bag or plastic wrap. This step is necessary to prevent the vegetable from absorbing smells. Store the asparagus in the fridge for up to a week.
