Bacon and Asparagus Wraps

Overview

In the West, asparagus is known as one of the top ten famous dishes. It is a high-end and precious vegetable. In China, it is also a remarkable high-end dish on the dining table. The so-called high-end is not determined by high prices like fish bones, bird's nests, and abalone, but because the income is strictly seasonal. If you miss the time, you can only look forward to the plum blossoms to quench your thirst. Moreover, asparagus combines the characteristics of natural wild and green organic, rich in nutrients and delicious taste, and deserves to be the king of vegetables. It’s not a joke. The first time I ate asparagus was a few years ago. I had never eaten it before I was 20 years old. Firstly, the place where I grew up was relatively remote, so I couldn’t have such rare ingredients. Secondly, even my parents had never bought it for me. As mentioned above, I didn’t eat such a delicious dish until later. Asparagus is naturally delicate, and only the tender stems are eaten. It is also carefully preserved during transportation. It needs to be wrapped in paper or plastic bags inside and outside to avoid being bruised and affecting the appearance and taste. Asparagus can be stir-fried, boiled, stewed, or served cold in cooking. It has a fresh texture, delicious flavor, and is tender and delicious. Although I got acquainted with asparagus late, once I met it, I would definitely follow it and never forget its taste. I enjoy the original flavor of asparagus and like to preserve its purest and most authentic side. Of course, in addition to restoring its original side, I also like to pair it with other ingredients, such as shrimp, shellfish, crab, and lily to create a delicious meal. The bacon and asparagus rolls I made today, while retaining the fragrance of asparagus, are also mixed with the salty aroma of bacon, giving it a special feeling in the mouth.
