To cook asparagus evenly, especially tougher, large out-of-season asparagus, using a [[speed peeler]], shave the skin from around the stump-end so the spear is an even circumference along the whole length.  Rub with a little olive oil and salt and griddle until lightly charred. They are also nice, [[grilled]] and served with a little [[beurre noisette]].

Espárrago de Navarra is a tender, fresh shoot of ''Asparagus officinalis L'', purplish, white or green, of the varieties ‘Argenteuil’, ‘Dariana’, ‘Desto’, ‘Cipres’, ‘Grolim’, ‘Juno’, ‘Steline’ and ‘Thielim’, for consumption when fresh or preserved, of set length, diameter and class.
It must be grown in the central Ebro valley, the production area covers 263 municipalities in Navarre, Rioja and Aragon in clay or open clay soils with slightly basic pH; the climate is continental with a Mediterranean influence and the mean temperatures are 13 to 14C.  The producers have to use appropriate cultivation, harvesting and production techniques, which are inspected.
