M&S White Asparagus (selected farms)

Marks and Spencers has a wonderful selection of fruit and vegetables.
On this trip, I spotted white, purple and regular green asparagus.
Normally I have white asparagus at the restaurants when it is in seasons which costs a bomb but it wasn't that expensive here so I grabbed a pack.
The asparagus is white because it was grown in the dark.
In terms if taste it is not as grassy as the green ones and there is a slight bitter taste.
Ended up blanching the white asparagus and having it with maple cured bacon as well as Monkfish.
