Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    White asparagus is grown underground to prevent the color development caused by sunlight. A specialty food in the U.S., white asparagus is especially popular in Europe.
  • tip 2
    Look for canned white asparagus in specialty or gourmet grocery stores.
