How the Spanish Enjoy Navarra Asparagus

Navarra Asparagus (espárragos de Navarra) is enjoyed across Spain as a delicacy and a classic element of tapas and special meals. Spaniards often serve the spears chilled with a simple splash of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt for an appetiser or as part of a tapas spread.

In spring, locals relish the asparagus paired with boiled eggs, smoked salmon, or roast peppers, or layer it in salads, tortillas, and pintxos (small snacks common in the Basque Country). At celebrations, it is common to see these prized spears dressed with homemade mayonnaise or vinaigrette, or simply adorned with aceite de oliva (olive oil), letting their delicate flavour shine.

Conservas Dantza products are featured in many Spanish homes and fine restaurants, offering a taste of tradition and authentic Navarra excellence.
