A lot of people eat raw asparagus and there is absolutely nothing wrong with doing so. There are actually a lot of different things that can be done with raw asparagus when it comes to adding it to certain types of dishes such as salad and dips.

If you are going to be using raw asparagus for a salad you will want to first break off the tough ends of the vegetable and toss them out because you will no longer need them. Then you will want to chop up the stalks into small pieces, adding them to any kind of salad you like for a little bit extra flavor.
