Earlier this week I spoke with my friend Margaret Roach, the master gardener behind A Way to Garden, all about asparagus — how to grow it, how to store it, and, of course, how to cook it!
I've rounded up some of the recipes we discuss on the blog, including a new favorite (pictured above) from the Canal House ladies and Margaret's delicious sounding Easy Asparagus-Parmesan Bake, which she describes as "a fast concoction that's not quite a quiche nor a frittata, but does involve a nice fresh egg or two."
Listen to our conversation over on A Way to Garden and learn how to make your own asparagus bed, how to dig the appropriate trench, and how to fill it with dormant asparagus crowns. Margaret makes it sound easy, and I'm tempted to order a few bundles of purple passion and to get planting!
Listen to our conversation here. Find 20 asparagus recipes here and enter to win a copy of Margaret's book, A Way to Garden, too:
PS: I also recently had the chance to chat with Margaret's sister, Marion Roach Smith, a memoir-writing coach, author, and podcast host, all about food writing. Listen here.
