Cooking Tip
Fresh Asparagus

Fresh asparagus is available year round, but the peak season is during the spring, when quality will be highest and priced potentially lower than the rest of the year.


Cooking Tip
Garlic

Garlic should be used in a way as to not mask the other flavors in the dish, unless it is the star attraction. Cooking garlic will take some of the bite out of garlic.
