Asparagus
Asparagus is a green vegetable that's easily recognizable for its long, pointy spears, which are commonly grilled, steamed, or roasted. It's known as a springtime vegetable and is primarily grown commercially in California, Michigan, and Washington state. Due to imports from China, Peru, and Germany, you can eat it year-round. Its seasonality also makes asparagus more expensive than other vegetables, and the flavor will vary based on where it's grown. Whether simply steamed, grilled, roasted, or incorporated into a recipe, asparagus brings the taste of green freshness to the table.
