Asparagus Salad With Hard-Boiled Eggs

It’s Asparagus Season in Germany! We Germans are fond of white asparagus, but only old varieties like Huchels alpha or Schwetzinger Meisterschuß have still the real “asparagus flavour”. They are hard to find and … expensive. I prefer the green asparagus, it needs no foil or mounds and it is easier to cut. For the white asparagus workers from other countries go out every morning before sunup and pick asparagus by digging a small hole in the mound, sticking a sharp knife into the dirt, aiming for the base of the shoot, carefully pulling out the shoot and filling in the hole with sand using a trowel. Green asparagus is so much easier to harvest.

Cucumber and Radish Salad With Yogurt and Cumin

4 Antworten

The new theme in our Good Friends Good Food group is salad. Salads crave for fresh ingredients and because fresh peas and artichokes were not yet available here in northern Germany, I skipped the last two rounds. This week we make salads with cucumber chosen by Nancy. I know three kinds of cucumber: those for salads, gherkins and those for sweet and sour pickling and braising. The latter you have to peel. The salad cucumbers are mostly grown in warm or cold greenhouses. They are available all year round, so it is easy to forget about the true northern German season. The
