Get the FREE recipe for Melissa Clark’s Pasta Primavera with Asparagus and Peas:
This simple pasta primavera recipe uses a combination of the earliest vegetables available in spring — asparagus, peas and spring onions — making it a true celebration of the season. The sauce works best with springy egg pasta, preferably homemade or a good purchased brand. Make sure not to overcook it; you need the chewy bite to stand up to the gently cooked vegetables. If you can’t find good fresh English peas, you can substitute frozen peas, but don’t add them until the last minute of cooking.

So good!
I don’t know what the ocean tastes like.
Too much talking
When did Melissa and Christina Tosi become separated? they are of the same wonderful mold.
Do you think fiddleheads would work well in this dish to substitute for one of the veggies?🤔🙂
"On this week's episode of 'Help! I've sexted my boss'…"
Looks super!
This looks amazing. Thank you so much I can’t wait to make it for my family!
Never used creme fraiche like this before so going to give this a go.Our chives are really prolific right now so will garnish at the end.
I Love the black denim apron!!
So light, colorful, and full of spring vibes — Melissa makes it feel effortless! 🌸🍋🍝
We’ve just started sharing cozy, homemade recipes too on our little channel. It’s videos like this that inspire us to cook with heart and joy. Thank you for the beauty and flavor! 🙏💛
Man! She is really clumsy!

Very good video to watch.😊
Recipe please
made this for din and ate it while watching party girl (1995) and drinking lots of white wine. mellisa clark and parker posey you will both always be famous <3
im gonna make this for sure!
Salt does nothing to increase h20 from liquid to gas are you an anti vaxer
If people haven’t tried it, taste raw asparagus. Very close to raw peas. Tuck some in ur lunch bag with baby carrots, some grape tomatoes;rip off a hunk of zucchini and chomp on it like an apple, half a bell pepper and u have the majority of ur daily veg without even trying.
Thanks for the tip on reducing waste with the snapped/cut asparagus. Two…TWO recipes in one! 🦉
Jfc people still cook pasta in a huge pot of water? And then complain that it takes long to get to a boil. Yeah no shit. Cut down on the water, and as long as you keep things moving and/or get it to a rolling boil, the pasta won't stick to each other
1:06 I really misunderstood chemistry class when we added salt to water to see if it boiled faster or slower. All these years I thought it made water boil faster
Can anyone tell me about the skillet she cooks the veggies in?
Loved Melissa's fun take on "sauté"! Engaging and informative.
Thank you.
Chef's kiss 💋 👨🍳 👌

Just… please keep making spring recipes so spring gets here faster cuz…. I'm on the winter struggle bus and I'm ready to get off.
1 tsp of salt per liter of water. There, I just saved you from tasting boiling salty water.
Looks great
Perpetuating 2 falsehoods within the first minute. First, seawater is 3.5% salt, so in 4 quarts (close enough to 4 litres) you'd need 140g of salt , that's 5 Oz. Second, the delay in reaching boiling by adding the salt when the water is cold, is a matter of less than a minute. If you want hot water quickly, use a kettle.
Had no idea what I wanted to do for dinner tonight and now I know! 🌱 Thanks Melissa!
LOVE Melissa, she's the top of the best online cooking tips! Happy spring, everyone 🙂
I would have loved this more with orecchiette pasta over a longer style pasta like the fettuccini u used. Regardless, great idea I’m ganna riff off this. Cheers!
Looks delicious!
