Got to know an elderly neighbor when we moved here nearly a decade ago who had an asparagus patch - first time I'd seen one - and I got to try fresh asparagus. Oddly, when it's cooked, I prefer the asparagus tips, but when it's raw, I prefer the stems (not the very bottom parts that have gotten woody). Raw asparagus reminds me of the flavor of raw sugar peas.
