No, I don't think so about asparagus. It has a salt-water taste. Also, the question of the tough central part is really a question of how young it is; the quality samphire needs not too much more than blanching.

Thorough washing removes most of the salty taste. The poor man's asparagus nickname is probably not only a question of flavour but also of the way it is served. I agree on blanching younger plants but even these have a tougher stem from the root that isn't exactly edible!

I believe the author is describing Marsh Samphire (Salicornia europea) not Rock Samphire. Marsh samphire is the more popular delicacy well known in the East of England, Rock Samphire was once popular (it was mentioned in King Lear) but is barely known now - this discussion is pertinent. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/gqt/samphire.shtml
There is certainly lots of confusion between Marsh Samphire and Rock Samphire. I have added the BBC link, together with a link to an interesting page by Biff Vernon, to this page and to the Salicornia page. --RichardVeryard 02:18, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
