La Catedral de Navarra White Asparagus Tips – Extra Thick Spanish 325g

La Catedral de Navarra has cultivated Navarre's white asparagus in the rich soils of the Ebro valley for generations. These extra-thick tips—the most prized part of the spear—are hand-harvested at peak tenderness and preserved in their own light brine. At 4–6 pieces per tin, each spear is substantial enough to command a plate, yet delicate enough to melt on the tongue.

About this product

White asparagus grows beneath the soil, shielded from sunlight, which keeps it pale and mild. The "yemas" or tips are the tender upper section, naturally sweeter and more buttery than the stalk. La Catedral sources only the extra-gruesas (thickest) grade, a mark of quality. The light brine preserves their texture and subtle flavor without overwhelming the vegetable itself. Glass jar, shelf-stable until opening.

How to enjoy

• Serve chilled as a tapa with good olive oil, fleur de sel, and a squeeze of lemon.
• Layer into a composed salad with jamón serrano, manchego, and roasted peppers.
• Warm gently and dress with a warm vinaigrette of sherry and Dijon mustard.
• Place atop a slice of toast spread with alioli for an elegant montadito.
