However, due to the long growth period of asparagus, the skin of asparagus has a long growth period. After exposure to the sun and rain, the skin becomes extremely hard, very old, and the taste is not very good, so people will remove part of the skin of asparagus most of the time, and many other parts can be eaten, and the nutritional value of asparagus is several times that of other vegetables.
