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.

Small Contribution. Big Impact.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

 

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
