Spring has sprung at Le Quartier, and with it comes the season of the White Asparagus, affectionately known as "The Queen of Vegetables." This cherished delicacy makes its brief but highly anticipated appearance from early April until the third week of June, offering a taste that's uniquely tender and delicious. This year, we're especially proud to feature Grade AAA white asparagus sourced directly from Holland, known for its superior quality and exceptional flavor.
White asparagus from Holland is celebrated for its delicate flavor and velvety texture, a result of being grown underground, and shielded from sunlight to prevent chlorophyll development. This meticulous process not only preserves its pale color but also enhances its mild, nutty flavor, making it a favorite among gourmets.
Here at Le Quartier, we're excited to showcase this springtime gem in two classic styles: Asparagus Flamande and Asparagus Hollandaise.
Asparagus Flamande is a dish that highlights the subtle flavors of the asparagus, served simply with chopped boiled eggs and a drizzle of melted butter. This combination enhances the natural sweetness of the asparagus, providing a comforting yet sophisticated taste experience.
Asparagus Hollandaise takes it up a notch with a luxurious hollandaise sauce, creamy and tangy with a hint of lemon, perfectly complementing the asparagus spears. This dish is rich and indulgent, ideal for those looking to savor the full-bodied flavor of this seasonal star.
Whether you're a longtime lover of white asparagus or eager to try something new, these dishes are crafted to offer a memorable dining experience. Celebrate the season with us at Le Quartier and discover why white asparagus deserves its regal title.
