Preparation

In a large saucepan filled with salted boiling water, cook the pasta al dente following the instructions on the package. Pour into a colander, rinse well with cold water and drain. Throw in a large salad bowl and reserve in the fridge.
In a large skillet heated over medium high heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and add the asparagus, peas and shallot. Season with salt and pepper and toss.
Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring until asparagus is tender. Pour into a plate and let cool for 10 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients and asparagus to the pasta and season with salt and pepper. Mix and reserve in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.

Our sommeliers suggest

TORRE ROSAZZA PINOT GRIGIO 2014

A pleasing wine to accompany this tasty salad, with its nose of beeswax, exotic fruit, spices and a lemony retro finish. A satiny texture and a beautiful mineral complete the whole. Ah ... and a vague impression of spring in this wine! See the product

AMERICAN JESUS PALE ALE, HOPERA, 5%

This pale ale will offer notes of grapefruit and tropical fruits that will go well with the nuts, while the moderate bitterness of beer will recall that of asparagus. A fruity accord without fruit! See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
