Fresh Co (ON) March 12 - 18

Hi people, one more for you! Sorry, I didn't have time to upload any others this week. Things are starting to get busy for me --hoping I can still post my usual amount, but if not...well, I might just have to grab your love and run out the door with it! :cheesygrin:

(kidding, kidding! Not about the lack of time, though. grrr.)

It's only the 1 cup size of the Crisco though. Half the size of the regular ones. Still not bad if you use your .50 off coupon.

First of all thank you cynn for posting !!

does anyone buy asparagus regularly? I never buy it, but I had some at Kelsey's yesterday with other grilled veggies and man was it tasty! I am curious if $1.97 a lb is a sale? Seems high to me.

This is a good price but also a normal one when asparagus is in season. Some stores sell it upwards of $3.99/lb. I can't recall seeing it less than $1.99/lb.

And it's very easy to cook! I just heat up some olive oil in a grill pan then toss them in until they soften a bit and i salt them very lighlty and even add a bit of black pepper and fresh lemon juice.

Yes its a good price..and its a sale price.

But be careful they are usually quite heavy , so even a small bunch becomes quite expensive, when they weigh it. Also make sure you go for fresh ones, once they become ripe/old the stems become quite hard , almost like small bamboos :lolsign: & you end up cutting the lower portion & throwing it away & wasting lot of them.

Thank you tjthemanto! I did buy one bunch and they were very slender and my DH ( Mr. Know-It-All ) tells me these are " female " asparagus. ( apparently the thicker ones are male and are not as tasty. They were delicious and tender and once I saw on a cooking show that you are to bend from the top and where it naturally snaps is only the part you should eat. I am getting another bunch before this sale ends, this one will be done by tomorrow, yummy!

Spot on walkonby!! The thinner the asparagus, the more tender they are. I never, ever buy thick asparagus. They tend to be on the hard side. $1.97lb. is a great price at this time of year. We buy them every weekend. I love asparagus frittata's. DH can't stop eating them or I bake them in the oven on a cookie sheet...sprinkle with olive oil, salt, pepper and then with 5 minutes remaining, I sprinkle parmesan cheese all over them.

I once had WHITE asparagus it was really good :).

I wonder if you can grow Asparagus in your garden/backyard in spring/summer/fall ..in Canada..and whether its easy or not .

If so that's the only thing I will plant this spring..he he . Apparently they are perennial , so they will grow each year :)
