A is for Asparagus German Cookbook for Spargelsaison

by: Gerhild Fulson  / Oma Gerhild shares German recipes rooted in family tradition.

A is for Asparagus is my little love letter to Spargelsaison, the famous German asparagus season when everything suddenly becomes Spargel. Not kidding. Restaurants, farm stands, market kiosks, even the neighbor at the checkout line. Everybody’s talking asparagus.

A is for Asparagus comes in spiral, paperback, and ebook so you can cook your way.

In this cookbook, I’ll walk you through what makes German asparagus so special, especially the prized white variety, and I’ll show you how to make it easy at home. Some recipes are classic German, some lean a bit modern, but they’re all Oma-approved and very WUNDERBAR.

Inside you’ll find:

• Fresh salads for Spargelsaison, including Frühlings-Spargelsalat and Spargel-Erdbeer-Salat
• Classics like Cremige Spargelsuppe and Spargel mit Hollandaise
• Quick, tasty sides and mains like roasted asparagus, mushrooms, bacon-wrapped, and Flammkuchen
• A simple intro to German asparagus season, plus tips for choosing, peeling, and prepping asparagus

A peek inside Easter Feast: Spargel mit Hollandaise, with the spring essentials lined up and ready.

What you'll love:

• A simple, no-fuss guide to choosing and prepping asparagus, including how to peel white asparagus without snapping your spears 
•  Clear, practical recipes that work for quick sides, light meals, and a spring table that feels very German 
•  Helpful notes on green, purple, and white asparagus so you can use what you find locally and still get great results with practical substitutions when needed
• Full-color photo for every recipe so you know what you're aiming for
• Choose the format that fits your kitchen: ebook, premium paperback, or spiral-bound that stays open while you cook

A is for Asparagus is only available in our Shop:

• Ebook
