Although it’s fine to consume the entire asparagus stalk itself, some find the ends a bit too woody to enjoy so they are trimmed off. Simply use your hands and break the stalk where it easily wants to break, this is where the woody part will end. It’s best to do one stalk at a time as every stock will be different. If you don’t mind a bit of woodiness in the ends, use a knife and trim 1-2 inches of the asparagus.
