Asparagus, at last...

We picked our first asparagus this year.  We've been really patient watching them grow for the past two years but resisting the temptation to pick and eat any until they were well established.

We should have started picking them a few days ago as unfortunately several have already grown to almost a metre in height! 

We had enough for a risotto, it was really, really good. And then we had rhubarb from the garden (I cooked it in the Remoska) and ice-cream.
