How are the asparagus trimmed?

Asparagus is simple to cut and takes a fraction of a second to prepare. The underside of the asparagus stem has a hard, woody texture that is not tasty. By bending the stem, you will be able to see where the solid section is and the bottom will break, leaving you with the soft and tender part of the asparagus.

Another way to cut the asparagus is to simply cut the ends with a sharp knife. Once you have removed the hard, woody part, cut the stems into 2-3 inch pieces if possible. The closer everyone is, the faster the asparagus cooks together.
