Woo-hoo! American asparagus (Washington State? Dunno) on sale for
$1.48/lb. Nice fat spears. I bought 2 bunches totalling 3#6 oz. for
~$5.00. When I started breaking it I noticed it was breaking high.
:-( For the helluva it, I weighed that which I cooked: 26-3/4 ounces.
More than half went to waste. Harummpphhh! And no, I'm not interested
in peeling the tough ends for something else.
It's right tasty, though -- I've cooked it - spears laid flat in my
Bigass� sauté pan, with a little bit of water and a wee sprinkle of
salt. Hoooooo-dawgie!
