Asparagus of a different color

Asparagus of a different color

Asparagus, which reaches its peak season in the coming weeks, isn't just green; it's also available in purple and white. (Photo by Caron Golden)

Asparagus is an ancient vegetable that’s been cultivated for more than 2,500 years. And in that time the tender green shoots that offer an unmistakable fresh green taste haven’t lost their charm.
Asparagus season is reaching its peak right now and there are lots of delicious ways to use this vegetable that’s a member of the lily family. The name asparagus comes from the ancient Greek word aspharagos which refers to the tasty sprouts or shoots.

I do too, but remember this. Do not cook a purple pepper. The heat chances them to green!
