Tregassow Asparagus

Tregassow Asparagus - Truro Farmers Market

British asparagus (which was once classified as part of the lily family) is the best in the world as the UK climate allows it to develop slowly, producing a full, sweet flavour and a fine, tender texture. However the season is short as well as sweet, beginning officially on the 24th April and lasting only until the end of June.
