CPP designation highlights select products made with traditional craft to support biodiversity & stewardship
Delicate in texture and rich in asparagus flavor, this legendary product from Basque country is a unique and delicious addition to any appetizer or side dish.

Known for its thick stalks and bone-white color, this asparagus grows in cold conditions using the highest quality water and takes over one year to cultivate – some of that time in complete darkness – all of which give this humble vegetable its iconic look and taste.

Gently warm up the whole stalks and serve them with lemon zest and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, or for a more premium approach, thinly slice the stalks thin and serve them interspersed with layers of ventresca finished with a gentle dusting of grated bottarga

TASTING: vibrant, bold, al dente
PAIRING: light-bodied red wine
SERVING: romesco, sturgeon caviar
INGREDIENTS: White Asparagus, Water, Salt Citric Acid
HARVESTED IN: Navarre, Spain
