We are firm believers in the fact that spring should not be left out of this comfort food game. This is especially true when the food hug comes in the form of fresh asparagus drenched in garlic, with bright and sweet green peas splattering around in pasta, coils all covered in a light and lemony garlic cream.
Do you have golden crisp that are deliciously crunchy and outstandingly tasty? Absolutely. Does a fun shape of pasta make this already fantastic springy win even better? Bring on the bucatini, ma’am!

Springtime Pasta, Here We Come
This recipe is simple and quick, allowing you to enjoy the sun on your face during those short but increasingly warm temperatures.
- Prepare the pasta. You do it. We hope it is bucatini because that’s funny.
- Build your sauce. Melt butter, then toss in the asparagus for a few minutes until they are soft and brightly green. Garlic should be added until it is fragrant, then add the heavy cream and broth.
- Stir and season. Add the peas to the sauce once it has thickened a little. Cook for a few more minutes. Add lemon juice, zest, salt and pepper.
- Toss, then top! Allow everything to thicken and stick to the beautiful pasta. Get your golden crisps to rain all over this gem!
The pasta, the creamy, the crunchy, the bright green…oof! A lot is going on here.

- Stir the sauce into the pasta. Please keep it on low heat for several minutes to ensure that the pasta and sauce are well combined.
