A salad ingredient in the source recipe
The Varzi consortium’s Spring Salad lists eight asparagus spears and instructs the cook to boil them and halve them lengthwise before adding them to the salad. The source does not identify a color, cultivar or growing area. Keep this generic entry separate from named white-asparagus products such as Bassano or Cimadolmo.
