asparagus is from Abensberg or Schrobenhausen

Never heard of it, that's probably why it's 'elevator music'. We're talking serious stuff here @Tago-Mago

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@Tago-Mago Yeah! Is it even funky?!

[Chap]

Nope, sorry to disappoint you guys, but the best white asparagus grows in the Lavanttal in Carinthia, Southern Austria (as you can read here: https://www.spargelhof-sternath.com/ )

[Tago Mago]

@RobeOfTheMagi it’s elevator music, that’s about as much interest as I can muster for asparagus. And it probably is elevator music wherever it’s grown

[goosehd]

This may be one of the best pissing contests I’ve seen on the forum in quite some time…

[endo]

Yes, we Germans are no joke when it comes to fresh asparagus.

[goosehd]

Should I bring up green asparagus or will I be offending you guys? It’s the earliest vegetable here (should be picking it in a few weeks) and I can’t wait.

[tody]

@goosehd please do. i can't understand the german obsession with white aspargus either. the best i ever had was in bc, green of course, as a side for a plank grilled salmon.

Completely different topic—start your own thread.

@tody one of my favourite dishes served with a nice Pinot Grigio.

Rhinelanders—what can you do?

[goosehd]

@endo So very sorry…I’ll see myself out now and watch silently

[RobeOfTheMagi]

It's the same plant. However, there's just less blood, sweat and tears involved in growing green asparagus.

definitely not good beer

[Tago Mago]

Can I have salmon with the pinot and something else as a side? Green asparagus is nicer than white though

[goosehd]

…the amount of hostility that I’m seeing here is on par with the racing stripe threads…where’s a mod when you need one?

[Tago Mago]

@Daniel-San big talk coming from Beck‘s country

[steelworker]

White asparagus is an affectation.

Maybe the member guidelines need updating:

“our policy of no discussions regarding politics, religion, asparagus, and other controversial issues.”
