King Juan Carlos sampled a couple of these extra thick beauties from El Navarrico and exclaimed 'Cojonudos!', which is slightly off-color slang for terrific! Our asparagus is from Navarra (not from China, as lesser brands tend to be) --, and it bears the seal of Denomination of Origin, which guarantees its quality and authenticity. Unlike the usual green asparagus we are familiar with in America, the plump spears of this artisan white asparagus are shielded from sunlight until the day they are harvested by hand. (more info)

Unlike the usual green asparagus we are familiar with in America, the plump spears of this artisan white asparagus are shielded from sunlight until the day they are harvested by hand. Each emerging spear is manually covered with moist earth to maintain its pure whiteness. This process produces extremely tender and delicious spears that literally melt in your mouth! In Spain these tender white asparagus spears are served atop an ensalada mixta (fresh mixed salad). Or you can enjoy them on a plate just by themselves with a dash of mayonnaise or ali oli.
