Default Chicken in Asparagus (Kylling i Asparges) in tartlets

A glass jar yes. Sometimes I use fresh green ones, but that is very unusual. These glasses are the common way to make it. Hence the convenience. Danes keep these jars handy for leftover chicken. Traditionally fresh veggies are scarce, so traditional danish dishes wont contain fresh veggies.

I think of jarred asparagus as mushy. Let us know what you think.

I know canned asparagus mushy is so I can't quite imagine jarred
asparagus being any better. But hey, you work with what you've got.

I don't mind canned asparagus, for some reason. I guess I just plain
love asparagus.

Speaking of which, I can now predict when we will have a frost here -
all I need to do is check my asparagus bed for new spears and then
forget to pick them. Next morning... frost. Spears ruined.
Every bloody time... like this morning. Sigh.

If you are using traditional dishes you will be dealing with a lot of
preserved fruits and vegetables. I was a kid in the 50s, when
refrigerators had a small freezer compartment, big enough for one or two
ice cube trays and maybe enough room left for a carton of ice cream.
The fresh produce department in the grocery store was small because
there was mainly only seasonal local produce. We did not have a wide
variety of frozen foods or imported fresh fruit and vegetables. A lot of
recipes called for canned products because was what we had. In fact,
most households canned their own fruits and vegetables. My mother used
to put up beans, peas, pears, peaches, cherries and pears. In the late
50s we got a chest freezer and she would freeze strawberries,
raspberries, peaches.... and beans. We always had a garden and grew lots
of green beans.

And as a side note.... we ate lots of canned peas... and I liked them.

It didn't try to install anything on mine.
Are you using Nortons by any chance?

Green ones mush by the touch, but the white ones hold up well, albeit watery.

Poking me in the ribs, eh? As a child I never tasted anything but
canned peas. Mushy, soft, way overprocessed canned peas. As a result,
I thought I hated peas until I was in my 30's. Then I was served some
fresh small peas in a restaurant. What a discovery!

Even small frozen peas are better than the canned peas my mother used to
dump out of a can and heat up as the vegetable to go with dinner.

We all have different tastes. I prefer frozen to canned whatever in
most cases. Fresh when possible.

Absolutely! I hated canned peas when I was a kid.

Now that small frozen peas exist, I'm okay with them - but they are
only an ingredient, never the main vegetable (unless there's nothing
else to use). For example, I am making creamed chicken tonight and
will include lots of (frozen) peas... mainly because I went through my
freezer this afternoon, discovered 3 partially used packages of frozen
peas and want to use some of it up.

I have no experience with green jarred asparagus. Don't think I've
ever seen them, but agree that jarred in general will be mushy.

Well you get your hands dirty with lots of germs and bacteria
(vaccination), get physical exercise, sunlight, plus fresh veggies
hopefully without chemicals?

Probably I also like canned beetroot, but only very occasionally at
a BBQ or in a hamburger - both of which I believe is not quite the
same thing as in your neck of the woods.

I wouldn't want to eat canned anything too often, though.
Just occasionally, otherwise I'd probably agree with the majority.

Doesn't necessarily mean the site itself is infected. It often means
that the site is loading an infected ad from a third-party ad server.
If you are not running ad-blocking software, install some now.

Good advice. I've had adblocker so long that I forget I have it.

However, te direct jpg link has no html code to load any ads. So whatever spawned something on his PC has to be local on his system, or his proxy adds stuff to pages he try to view.
