Air Fryer White Asparagus

Hi Everyone, it's white asparagus season! I see them in the produce section of the grocery store.

I love preparing white asparagus using the air fryer. Why? Because it's simple, with few ingredients, and FAST.

White asparagus shines so well on its own and it doesn't need much because it's a great ingredient to start with.
