El Navarrico has been preserving white asparagus from the Ebro Valley since 1896. This 185-gram jar holds tender spears dressed in a bright mustard vinaigrette—the kind of simple, elegant preparation that requires no embellishment, just good ingredients and decades of know-how. White asparagus, less common outside Spain, is sweeter and more delicate than its green counterpart, with a subtle earthiness that the mustard dressing both complements and awakens.
About this product
White asparagus is blanched during growth to prevent chlorophyll development, yielding its pale color and mild flavor. El Navarrico sources theirs from the Ebro region and pairs them with a clean mustard vinaigrette that balances acidity and umami. The result is a versatile side dish or tapa that tastes as though it was just prepared, not preserved in a jar.
How to enjoy
- Serve chilled as a tapa on buttered toast with a thin slice of jamón.
- Add to a salad of butter lettuce, hard-boiled egg, and sherry vinegar.
- Pair with grilled fish or roasted chicken and new potatoes.
- Include in a Spanish charcuterie board with aged manchego and marinated olives.
- Toss into a potato salad for a gourmet twist on a classic.

⭐ Why we love this
El Navarrico's white asparagus represents a cornerstone of Spanish conserva tradition—since 1896, they've mastered the art of preserving Ebro Valley's delicate spears at peak tenderness. The mustard vinaigrette is restrained and purposeful, letting the asparagus's natural sweetness and subtle earthiness shine, embodying the Spanish philosophy that great ingredients need only minimal intervention.
🍷 Pairing suggestion
Serve chilled with a glass of crisp Albariño or Verdejo to echo the bright acidity of the mustard dressing. For a classic Spanish tapa, pair with jamón ibérico on toasted bread and a dry Fino sherry—the salinity of the wine amplifies both the preserved vegetable's elegance and the ham's richness.
📍 From Spain
Born in the Ebro Valley of Navarre and Aragon, El Navarrico has been Spain's trusted name in canned vegetables and seafood for over 125 years. This region's fertile soils and cool climate produce white asparagus of exceptional delicacy, a vegetable deeply rooted in Spanish culinary tradition and rarely found outside the peninsula with this level of quality and care.
