      In Germany, the white ones are the standard. It's basically the same as the green ones, but we put a tarp over it to protect it from the sun, that keeps them white. It also preserves the structure and the taste a bit, which would change when it turns green.

She learned of a fried asparagus recipe, tried it herself and liked it, so she later made some for the rest of the family, explaining to those of us that were hesitant because we didn't like asparagus his most restaurants steam them, but frying them gives them a much different taste. We all tried it and liked it. We've found similar for a lot of vegetables, including brussel sprouts, and now we rarely eat plain boiled vegetables, either roasting, frying, or sauteing them, and with one exception, our whole family, majority of our extended family included, all like vegetables more than before, even those that already liked vegetables
