4 amazing benefits of asparagus you should know about
So, there are plenty of powerful reasons to get your fair share of asparagus this spring. If you head to the grocery store or farmers market to pick up some asparagus, follow these tips:
- Search for stalks without blemishes or dry spots.
- You also want the tips to be closed and firm.
- Asparagus can spoil quickly, so don’t buy it too far in advance. (Although, if you buy it from the farmers market instead of the grocery store, it’ll stay fresh longer.)
If you’re starting a spring garden and want to include asparagus, you better hurry. Asparagus needs cool weather to thrive. That’s why you have to get it in the ground by early spring or fall.
But the good news is, asparagus is a perennial vegetable. So, once you get it going, it will come back every year.
Here’s to more asparagus and better health this spring!
