ASPARAGUS MENU

Due to it's unique season, Asparagus is generally available from St Georges Day 23rd April, to 25th June, give or take a week or two each side if we are lucky!!)  Please remember to only buy your local produce, where ever you may be in the country and help support your farmers.

Asparagus Season is Over for Another Year so We Are Now Focusing on Summer Ingredients

Local Asparagus from Tregassow Farm, St. Erme, Nr Truro

Simply Grilled Asparagus £6.50

Steamed Asparagus with Gremolata £7.50

Asparagus Soup with Sprue and Croutons £5.50

Asparagus Fritters with Chermoula Mayonnaise £7.50

Tregassow Asparagus Mezze: Fritters, Grilled, Steamed, Sprue, Shaved and Soupçon £12.00

Asparagus Wrapped in Deli Farm Coppa Ham with Tuscan Bread Salad £10.50

To Accompany Your Asparagus, We Recommend:

Hendrick’s Gin and Tonic

Hendrick's is an unusual gin with an 'unexpected' infusion of cucumber and rose petals. Cucumber is recommended instead of lemon in your gin.

 Plymouth Fruit Cup and Lemonade

 At its heart is the renowned gin, blended with luxurious fruit liqueurs, vermouths, aromatic bitters, and pure citrus fruit extracts. The taste reveals a burst of tangerine and lime with aromatic fresh blossom.  Served with berries, cucumber, mint and garden flowers.

Valencay Sauvignon Blanc, Vin de Pays du Val de Loire 2009

A very elegant wine from the valley that’s home to Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé.  Fresh and clean with notes of cut grass and freshly torn herbs make this a perfect accompaniment to the asparagus season.

.

Tregassow Asparagus is available from Truro Farmers Market every Wednesday and Saturday until the end of the season.
