The Asparagus Festival Cookbook (Paperback, 2nd Revised edition)

If ever a vegetable deserved a cult following, the asparagus is it. Packed with vitamins and minerals, high in fibre, and low in sodium, the asparagus is as healthful as it is flavourful. To celebrate this versatile ingredient, Stockton, California, launched its first three-day Asparagus Festival in 1986 and has attracted thousands of ardent asparagus aficionados during the fourth weekend in April ever since. This cookbook highlights the prize-winning recipes, with dishes to please even the pickiest vegetable eaters.
