Purple asparagus is tender enough to be eaten raw and if cooked, it will dull in color. Cooking should be done so over brief and high heat, whether grilled, sautéed or steamed. Little embellishment is needed to showcase purple asparagus’ best qualities. Three ideal companion ingredients of purple asparagus are olive oil, lemon and sea salt. Spring ingredients such as morel mushrooms, green garlic, wild ramps, fennel, leeks, young lettuces and grapefruit are also quite suitable pairings. Other complimentary ingredients include aged nutty cheeses such as pecorino and alpine cheeses, bacon, prosciutto, cream, eggs, butter, shallots, herbs such as thyme and basil, yeasty breads like sourdough and wheat and grains such as brown rice, quinoa and farro.
