Come on, come on, come on!
This is getting ridiculous. April 22nd and still not an asparagus spear big enough to cut.
I’ve been fantasising for weeks about just-cut, fresh asparagus, one of the great rewards of growing your own vegetables.
It’s a taste sensation you literally can’t buy – no shop can get it from plant to plate fast enough to preserve the gorgeous sweetness. The only way to enjoy the true flavour of asparagus, as God intended it, is to grow your own.
Trouble is, you have to wait. And Jeez, is the waiting painful.
