After our not-so-wonderful winter and spring, opening day of the North Main St. farmers’ market in East Hampton was gratifyingly robust. Witness these gorgeous, freshly cut stalks of purple asparagus. And they’re organic to boot!
The violet hue is not the only difference between purple asparagus and its green brethren; the purple variety is sweeter and less fibrous.
The skinny stalks can be enjoyed raw. They’re so tender that they don’t need to be peeled.
Thick stalks, like the ones here, can benefit from a trimming, although it’s not totally necessary. Partial peeling lets you have it both ways: creamy, pale green stalks topped with regal purple crowns.
The most important thing is the cooking method. If you want to keep their good looks, hot, fast and dry is the only way to go. Steaming or sautéing purple asparagus washes out the color. So roast or grill them over medium-high heat (375º) to maintain their color.
