Peel the white and green asparagus, leaving only the bottom two-thirds of the green asparagus. Cut the stalks into pieces. Squeeze the oranges and lemons. Sauté the green asparagus and rosemary sprigs in a pan with olive oil at high heat for about 10 minutes. Rosemary powder or rosemary needles soaked in oil can also be used. Then add the white asparagus and the finely chopped onions and sauté until the onions are medium brown. Deglaze the asparagus with orange and lemon juice, white wine, and balsamic vinegar and braise until the asparagus is cooked to your desired degree. Finally, remove the rosemary sprigs. Season the asparagus pan with elderflower syrup, honey if desired, salt, and pepper. Mild smoked ham and new potatoes or mashed potatoes go well with this dish.
