Male asparagus does not go to seed. That makes it much easier to manage. Male asparagus are resistant to rust, which is a fungus disease to which asparagus is highly susceptible. The males are also resistant to fusarium rot and crown rot. Another benefit to male asparagus is that is produces more than a female plant. Jersey male asparagus is considered to the premium asparagus.
That probably depends on what the frozen asparagus would have had done to it.... if it was to be baked then probably not. Asparagus doesn't require much cooking, and it is likely that if the frozen asparagus was to undergo heating for any length of time then that might be enough time for the fresh asparagus to cook. You might blanche the asparagus first - plunge it into boiling water for a minute before using it in the recipe.
well asparagus is very very dear, it would be about £2.30 a piece. I hope that helps!!
