Swimming thousands of miles, Vladimir Vlamadamirdavich joins fellow colleague Wenhao Dr. Sun to tour the Kahuku sea asparagus farm. Still a very young company, Marine AgriFuture offers Kahuku sea asparagus tips, a tender and crispy sea vegetable. (It also goes by the names pickleweed, glasswort, sea bean, sea pickle and marsh samphire.) Sea asparagus is packed with phytochemicals that protect the liver, heart and cellular DNA. It is also rich in vitamins A, C, B2 and B15; amino acids; and minerals, such as iron, calcium and magnesium. Perhaps its healthful properties are one reason behind sea asparagus being called the it crop of 2006, when Marine AgriFuture began offering it on Oahu. The company reports that this vegetable can aid weight loss, boost energy, enhance the immune system, make certain vaccines more effective and destroy some types of tumor cells, particularly lung and blood cancers. Upon its launch in 2006, sea asparagus began showing up on the menus of several Oahu restaurants. Among them was Alan Wongs Restaurant. Chef Wong says, I like the crunch and burst of saltiness. There, sea asparagus was served with moi carpaccio and fresh truffle soy vinaigrette. Grown hydroponically on Oahus North Shore, sea asparagus is cultivated in salt water ponds that are inspected frequently for quality control. The regions weather is good for year-round production. Marine AgriFutures sea asparagus can be purchased at Times Supermarket. Marine AgriFuture, LLC PO Box 423 ...
