Spring is announced in many ways but we in Puglia recognize it by the unmistakable scent of wild asparagus that grow wild in our uncultivated countryside, especially in the Alta Murgia National Park.<\/p>\n\n
It is almost a collective ritual: we set out early in the morning in search of asparagus with the whole family and compete to see who collects the most, already looking forward to some of the delicacies that will be prepared with these small spring vegetables, very rich in beneficial properties.<\/p>\n\n Wild asparagus lends itself to a thousand preparations but the best way to taste them is certainly the omelette, prepared with very fresh eggs, possibly from the farm.<\/p>\n\n It is a poor dish, typical of peasant cuisine, which was eaten in the first days of spring, often as a single dish, inevitable in picnics and trips out of town, accompanied by a good red.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n 1 bunch of wild asparagus<\/p>\n\n\n\n Very fresh eggs (1-2 per person, depending on the size)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stale bread to taste (or grated bread)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grated cheese (pecorino or parmesan) to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n Freshly ground black pepper<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Break up the asparagus with your hands, taking only the tender part, wash them well under a jet of cold water, dry them with a cloth.
