Nutritional values
Asparagus is nutritious and very low in calories! This vegetable stimulates kidney activity and helps to purify the body, thanks to asparagine acid. It also contains folic acid, which is essential for blood formation. Because of the raw preparation, this salad's many vitamins, minerals, and trace elements are not lost in the cooking water.
Asparagus season begins around mid-April and lasts until the end of June. Unpeeled, it stays fresh in the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator for up to four days if wrapped in a damp cloth.
