Hazırlanışı

1. Trim the woody ends off of the asparagus spears and cook them in lightly salted water for about 5 minutes until tender. Cut off the tips, reserve and set aside, then cut the stems into pieces. In a saucepan, heat the oil and cook the shallots until they are translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the cream and chopped asparagus stems and heat over a low flame. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, and use a hand wand to puree the sauce until it is very smooth. Taste, and season with salt and pepper. Keep the sauce warm while you cook the pasta. Drain the pasta, then toss with the sauce and reserved asparagus tips until everything is heated through. Serve in individual bowls garnished with pine nuts, lemon rind, and black pepper, and pass additional grated Parmesan cheese at the table if desired.
