    I came back from an emergency trip in France to find some asparagus forgotten in the fridge, past date but still looking good. And I found this and this sounded such an interesting idea (especially as I had some strawberries in the freezer). But the result was not to my liking. I reckon it is partly my fault, the asparagus and strawberries were past their prime, and I replaced the creme fraiche by Philadelphia as I did not have any. Result : The pastry was tasted amazing and turned out very flaky (a tad too much maybe, but I have never been so great with flaky pastry). The overall taste disappointed me. A bit bland, and did not marry too well. I may try again with better/fresher ingredients.
