NEW FOREST PURPLE ASPARAGUS

NEW FOREST PURPLE ASPARAGUS 💜


Fresh in this morning, we've got stunning Purple Asparagus from New Forest Fruit!

What makes purple asparagus stand out from their green and white cousins is its abundance of anthocyanins, a pigment that gives them the purple hue.

Purple asparagus is mild in flavour but sweeter than green asparagus. It has a higher content of natural sugars than other asparagus varieties.  Cooked purple asparagus develops flavoural notes of artichoke, barley and almonds.
