Asparagus are delicate — long stalks that need to be handled gently so they don't break. An asparagus pot is tall and rather narrow, designed so that asparagus can cook upright in the water without falling over. Many versions have an insert basket so you can easily lift them in and out without damaging them. Perfect preparation for classic asparagus pot recipes, or simply for those who want to cook a decent portion of asparagus at home for the first time without them falling apart halfway through.
