My absolute favorite veg. I remember the long days on my grandfather’s farm getting the white gold out of the ground.

竹笋 the first time I saw green and white Spargel in Germany, it reminded me of the bamboo shoots. They grow the whole year, but the spring and winter bamboo shoots are the best. Bamboo shoots are not only daily cooked but also pickled and preserved for a long time .

Hi Max, thank you for this recipe. Today i am trying it. By the way, my husband is German, and he does not like white asparagus! I am from Turkey, i did not know asparagus before moving to Germany but i really like it 🤪 and a vegetable which we eat especially in summer a lot in Turkey is Ocra. It is not known in Germany, but i strongly suggest it ☺ LG

It's known, but certainly not common.

@Limon Kolonyası Ocra is definitely worth a try! Another typical turkish vegetable that is not well known here is is Purslane (Semizotu). Tastes very good with cucumber and fresh yoghurt served as a salad.🌿

Suggestion from a neighbour from the west side: If you use a cheese slicer to peel then you only have to peel one time and it is always right.

Yes, white asparagus tastes very different than the green one. It's not so common in other countries while you'll find it everywhere in Germany.

@DAvid Tissera It does not really matter actually. The asparagus becomes softer during the cooking process and therefore can no longer stand "upright" in the pot anyway. If you still want to cook it upright: make sure you bundle it up!

When you do the white asparagus you serve it with, potatoes or ham. What else can I serve it with. Around 5.30pm, none are great wine drinkers, actually they prefer half dry which I dislike.
10mins is FAR too long for any kind of asparagus. 5-6 mins max, I prefer 4 minutes.

Belgian white asparagus come in 4 different sizes: A (16-20mm), B (12-16mm), AA (20-28mm sold most) and AAA (>28 mm, restaurant quality). They all have different cooking times. 10 min is most definitely not far too long for any kind. It might be for green asparagus.

@@ahimmeroder5817 brown butter and bread crumbs is more a Northeast German way of serving aspargus. No wonder, Max knows it from the Berlin region. You would find this with other vegetables like caulifloer or black salsifies there, too. The bread crumbs can also be replaces by shaved almonds if you want be more fancy. In my northestern region white aspargus woulde be serve with the brown breadcrumb butter, boilded salted potatoes and a schnitzel.

I tried this white asparagus for the first time this year and it was disgusting. Not the flavor, but the consistency, horrible. And this butter and breadcrumb mixture on it only makes it worse. Will never eat this again in my life.
