How to Pick

When selecting asparagus, look for firm, straight stalks with tightly closed tips. Avoid any that are wilted or have a strong odor. Thicker stalks are ideal for grilling or roasting, while thinner ones are great for steaming or stir-frying. Additionally, consider the color of the asparagus - vibrant green stalks are a sign of freshness. Selecting premium imported asparagus ensures that you are getting a high-quality product that is flavorful and tender.

How to Store

To maintain the freshness and quality of our premium imported asparagus, it is important to store them properly. Asparagus should be stored in the refrigerator, preferably in a plastic bag to retain moisture and prevent wilting. Make sure to keep them away from fruits that produce ethylene gas, such as apples and bananas, as this can cause them to spoil faster. Before storing, trim the ends and place them in a shallow dish with a little water, covering the tops with a plastic bag to keep them fresh for longer. Following these storage instructions will ensure that you can enjoy the delicious taste and crispness of our premium imported asparagus for as long as possible.

Where it’s Sourced

Our premium asparagus is grown in the rich and fertile soils of Victoria and South Australia, where the cool climate and plentiful rainfall create the ideal conditions for producing tender and flavorful spears.

Serving Suggestions

Grill or roast the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt for a simple and delicious side dish. Alternatively, chop the asparagus and add it to a quiche or omelette for a nutritious and flavorful twist. The tender spears also pair well with a creamy hollandaise sauce for a decadent appetizer or light lunch option.

Recipe Ideas

  • Roast with olive oil, salt, and pepper for a simple side dish.

  • Grill with garlic and lemon for a flavorful appetizer.

  • Add to pasta dishes for a fresh, springtime twist.
