Discover White Gold in the Kitchen with a Gourmet White Asparagus Dinner

A once-a-year delicacy, white asparagus is beloved and highly sought-after by chefs and dining aficionados alike for its unique characteristics – more delicate, faintly sweeter, less bitter, and more tender than its well-known green variety.

White asparagus is very popular in Europe and western Asia.

To cultivate white asparagus, the shoots are covered with soil as they grow, i.e. earthed up; without exposure to sunlight, no photosynthesis starts, and the shoots remain white and the resultant spears are cultivated while still tender and delicate.

Only seasonally on the menu, asparagus dishes are advertised outside many restaurants in Europe, usually from late April to June. For the French style, asparagus is often boiled or steamed and served with Hollandaise sauce, melted butter or olive oil, Parmesan cheese, or mayonnaise-based sauces – but there are as many delightful ways to prepare white asparagus as there are countries in Europe!

Panna Cotta with White Asparagus and Strawberries

 

We have reviewed Chalet Suisse several times and it never disappoints. Last year, we were able to get seats at the one-night-only White Asparagus Dinner and it was amazing. But a word of warning: Come with a big appetite for this multi-course feast, because Owner Manfred J. Faehndrich and Chef Raymond Chew are super generous with their portions, and it’s all delicious!

Reservations are strongly advised for this special dinner. You can visit the Chalet Suisse website HERE or give a call to +603.4252 4589.
