Ingredients
- 8 cups water divided
- ½ tsp salt
- 8 oz fettuccine noodles
- ½ lb asparagus woody ends trimmed, spears cut in half
- ½ tsp olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour unbleached
- 1 c Sauvignon Blanc wine or other dry white wine
- 1 ½ tsp parsley
- ¾ tsp salt
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add salt and pasta. Simmer, uncovered, 9-10 minutes, until pasta is al dente. Drain and set aside in a serving bowl.
- In a medium saucepan, bring another 4 cups of water to a boil. Add asparagus and blanch for 1-2 minutes, until brightly colored. Remove from the water and immediately rinse spears in cool water to stop them from cooking further and becoming limp.
- In a large, non-stick sauté pan. Heat ½ tsp oil. Add diced onion and saute over medium-high heat, 2-3 minutes, until the onions begin to soften.
- Add flour to the softened onions, and mix until all the flour is moist. Add wine, and simmer until thickened, 4-5 minutes. Mix in parsley and salt.
- Add the sauce to the drained pasta and mix to coat.
- Top with asparagus spears to serve.
Notes
- *More importantly than the type, make sure this is a wine you would enjoy drinking, since most of the flavor in this dish comes from the wine sauce.
