Asparagus are delicious vegetables and it's better to get thicker ones. They are usually from Australia. The thinner ones are from Thailand. *Do note not to get those bases that look quite dried up. These asparagus are old and not tasty at all.
Asparagus are amazing because they are able to absorb the sweetness from seafood and enhancing it's original flavor. I will usually peel off the skin of the asparagus because it is usually too thick. After peeling, it leaves the tender flesh of the asparagus.
