Nestled between the slope of Mount Etna and the majestic Mediterranean Sea is where we enjoy the Sicilian Simplicity

Frutta e Verdura
After lunch today we took a walk to the garden. We came home with our bags full! We picked asparagus, chicory, potatoes, kiwi, mandarin oranges, fennel, parsley, and rosemary. The grapefruit, broccoli, and cauliflower are not ready yet. Asparagus
It is wild asparagus, but could I say wildly cultivated? They grow on the edges of the garden, every year more pops up! We cut only the little tender sprouts and the tougher, bigger stalks make more. There is absolutely no maintenance and they are so very tasty!!
Fresh asparagus. Yummy.
ReplyDeleteWere they cultivated or wild?
