Pasta Primavera: Farfalle with spring vegetables, Italian-American recipe - Gianni's North Beach
Pasta primavera is inspired by the original Spaghetti alla Primavera from Sirio Maccioni, co-owner of Le Cirque restaurant in New York City--it's a real Italian-American classic.
Pencil-thin asparagus, tiny peas, and tender fava beans are among my favorites, so I just had to make pasta primavera with these spring farmers' market beauties. But the nice thing about pasta primavera is that it's versatile enough to work well with all kinds of produce. Asparagus not looking so good? Use artichokes instead! Are those gorgeous ramps on sale this week? Use those! Just pick whatever's fresh and delicious in your market and you can't go wrong.
I've lightened the dish up by using no butter and less cream, and this keeps the spring vegetables in sharp focus. Instead, pasta water creates a flavorful broth as the base of the sauce and bow tie pasta instead of spaghetti guarantees you get some veggies with every bite. I prefer the more robust ricotta salata flavor instead of parmigiano as a finishing note, but different strokes, right? And extra virgin olive oil does put some fat back into this really healthy, full-flavored taste of springtime, I'll give you that, but come on, a little ain't gonna kill ya.

This video is coming in a little late so you probably aren't finding the best spring peas or favas now, but you can do this just as well with summer snap peas, green beans, zucchini, snow peas, or other types of fresh green summer vegetables.

Melissa Clark's Pasta Primavera from the New York Times:
Pasta water should be salted to between .5 and 2% (more or less depending on taste and on how salty the sauce and other ingredients are). It should never be as salty as the sea (which is about 3.5%). Here's some testing:
Here's a guide to how to properly finish pasta with a sauce and pasta water in the pan:
The original spaghetti Primavera, which Sirio Maccione introduced to Le Cirque in 1975:
Clio, where Felipe was a fava and pea-shucking master, does not exist any more, but it is now Uni, a restaurant I used to work at when it was still just a 12-seat bar in the basement of Clio:
The London restaurant where I saw the cooks toss out 95% of the asparagus (among other really atrocious practices all around) actually closed in 2019. It's now a bar and grill run by the same shouty British chef. I have no idea how well it is run now. I hope it is not as abusive.
