      Green or white?

      Green are so so, but white… Omg… With hollandaise and a good piece of ham.

        With all due respect my dude I think you’re just using the asparagus as an edible spoon for hollandaise there. And I like asparagus

          I cannot deny I prefer to eat a bit too much hollandaise with them, but I also really enjoy them “au natural”.

          I even like them from a jar.

          I’m not sure why though. Just taste I guess.

          I think what helps with the hype is that they are quite seasonal, so when they are available you hear a lot of people talk about them maybe?

          Same with Rhubarb and “pepernoten” (if you’re Dutch) for instance.

        The type that’s popular here is white and boiled. Even if I liked it green, grilled etc. (haven’t tried it, so it’s technically possible), that’s not what most people here are hyped about.
