Ask Mary: Asparagus Types

Dear Mary,
Which do you like better? Fat or skinny asparagus?
Paul

I actually like them both equally. It really depends on what I am cooking. For instance, if I am grilling them, I like buying the fatter ones. If I am sautéing them, I usually like the thinner ones. For salads and pastas, I prefer the fat ones so I can chop them up. But they all taste great!

Enjoy! Mary
