Description
White asparagus (Asparagus officinalis) spears tied together in a bunch. This seasonal vegetable is produced by growing asparagus in the dark. Without sunlight, the plants cease to produce the green photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll and become white. Their sugar content increases and their flavour becomes milder.
