Edible part of asparagus

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stem

(Other definitions for stem that I've seen before include "Stop; stalk; ship's timber" , "Vertical part of flower or drinking glass" , "Restrict - part of a plant" , "branch of family" , "It supports a plant" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
