Distinctively rich in flavor, asparagus is a good source of vitamin C, folate, iron and copper. To prepare asparagus for cooking, hold a piece of asparagus in the middle. Grab the cut end and bend it downward until the cut end snaps off. The asparagus will break in the right spot to remove its woody end.
