Brown emphasizes the quality of thicker asparagus spears for grilling, as they offer better texture and sturdiness. He prefers this grilling technique for enhancing the vegetable's unique flavor. Additionally, the article mentions alternative cooking methods like roasting and pan-frying while suggesting a well-balanced seasoning with olive oil.
I adore asparagus. I love asparagus because you don't have to do much of anything at all; you grill it, rub it with lemon juice and salt.
Grilling is an elite method that imparts more depth of flavor and texture with smoky char. You'll bring even more flavor to the table with extra virgin olive oil.
