FAQs - Here are the answers to some questions you may have about this recipe, from our food historian. I'm terrible at custard, how can I make sure it thickens? Fear not! Add 1 heaped tablespoon of cornflour to your mix, whisk it well, and then bring to the boil very gently. The cornflour will stop the eggs from curdling. Simmer until it thickens. Did spices really come ready ground in Mrs Crocombe's day? Rarely, but Mrs Crocombe had a staff of maids - such as Mary-Ann - to help her with the more menial tasks. Should I cut or snap my asparagus? Asparagus will snap where you bend it. When you are preparing it, it's better to cut it, feeling the stem for where it ceases to be woody and tough. You can see that Mrs Crocombe does exactly this. Usually that's where the stem turns green from the pinky-white flesh underneath. What can I use the asparagus trimmings for? The woody bits are best composted. When you are trimming the cooked spears to fit the rolls, you can use the offcuts to mince and put into the sauce, or in any other asparagus dish. What cheese can I use? You can use any flavourful cheese. Mrs Crocombe uses parmesan, but a Cheshire or a gruyere style cheese would also work well. Can I use bought rolls? Yes, by all means, but try to get yeast-risen ones, not Chorleywood process rolls, as they will be soft and too fluffy. You can easily make your own though. If you do bake your own, cover them with a damp tea towel after removing from the oven to keep the crust soft and workable. Lard in the rolls?! Yes, but you can also use butter. This is a strange recipe, but it's quite venerable, and dates to the 18th century when it was normally done with cinnamon and not cheese. Some recipes even call for you to poke holes in the lids of the rolls and poke the spears out through them! Got other questions? Leave us a comment and we'll do our best to respond!

Thought (and my partner)) the same. They said maybe take the asparagus out, cut up with the knife and dip in the sauce with your fork then pull the remaining bread up between knife and fork to eat. Me personally think we could lose the bread rolls (seems a bit heavy) and just present the spears on a plate with the sauce poured over them.

Okay, I made these, but I admit I changed it up a bit. I added two kinds of cheese to the custard and also topped with bacon. I also used rolls that would lie flat and hollowed them out like boats. So in the hollows I put custard, shredded cheese, bacon and then topped with the asparagus spears. Warmed in the oven and brushed with butter. I also confess, I added a bit of salt to the custard after it was done. Let me tell you these are so good! I ate them cold or warm for the next few days and they were so scrumptious. I do recommend and they'd be great just as Mrs. Crocombe makes them too. I added bacon cause I wanted sort of a meal in one. Thank you for this recipe!

Hiya. I was brought up being told/taught that 'snapping' was simply an indication of freshness, that's all. That is, if the end DOESN'T snap off cleanly, remaining attached in some way or being a stringy break, then the asparagus is more than 2 days old. You don't have to 'snap' every piece in your bunch to find out, the first piece you try will tell you. Then you can move to prepping with a knife. Stay safe. All the best to you.

I'm so happy to see Mrs. Crocombe again, it's like seeing an old friend after a long parting :)
