ASPARAGUS SPAGHETTI



Asparagus Spaghetti image

Lots of asparagus is grown not too far from our h me. Each spring, when it's being harvested, I'll make several trips to the fields. I put about 40 lbs. in the freezer...with what's left, we gorge ourselves on fried asparagus, beef and asparagus, scalloped asparagus, etc.! It's no problem feeding my husband (he's retired; we have two grown children and four grandsons). He'll eat almost anything I put in front of him. We like this dish with a salad and dessert. It's so easy to prepare-it takes only about half an hour from start to serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta: Spaghettini, a thin spaghetti-like pasta, is the ideal choice for this dish. It cooks quickly and holds the sauce well.
  • Use fresh, seasonal ingredients: Asparagus, crab, and sun-dried tomatoes are at their best during the spring and summer months. If you can't find fresh asparagus, frozen asparagus can be used instead.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is just tender but still has a slight bite to it. This will prevent it from becoming mushy when it is tossed with the sauce.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the asparagus: This will prevent it from cooking evenly. Cook the asparagus in batches if necessary.
  • Use a light touch when tossing the pasta with the sauce: This will help to prevent the pasta from breaking.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Chopped basil, parsley, or chives add a fresh, flavorful touch to this dish.

Conclusion:

This spaghettini with crab, asparagus, and sun-dried tomatoes is a light, flavorful, and elegant dish that is perfect for a spring or summer meal. The combination of fresh, seasonal ingredients and a simple, flavorful sauce makes this dish a surefire hit.
