The freshest asparagus at Sigona's is...

When we bring in local asparagus, sometimes it arrives the same day it's picked. Now that's fresh! As soon as asparagus is harvested, the sugars begin to convert to starch, making the spears more tough and less sweet. If you want the best asparagus experience, shop Sigona's in the late winter/early spring for spears from nearby growers, such as those in Salinas, Calif. They're the freshest around! Robbie Sigona, our produce buyer, shares more in the video.
