INGREDIENTS

8 tbsp salted butter
1 lb spaghetti
12 oz bacon, browned
12 oz asparagus, shaved
4 oz Pecorino cheese, grated
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped chives

INSTRUCTIONS

Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil in a large stockpot. Once boiling, add 1 tbsp salt and the spaghetti. Cook the spaghetti until al dente, meaning the pasta needs 1-2 minutes of additional cooking. While the pasta is cooking prepare the sauce.

In a 6-quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, it will begin to cook and foam. Continue to cook the butter until the foaming slows down and brown bits form in the bottom of the pan, 6-8 minutes. If the butter is brown before the pasta is ready, remove the butter from the heat to stop cooking as brown butter can burn quickly.

Once the butter is browned, add the al dente pasta to the brown butter and stir. Add the grated Pecorino cheese and 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking liquid. Stir to combine and add the shaved asparagus and bacon. Stir until the asparagus is wilted. Stir and add more pasta liquid if needed. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and serve with a sprinkle of chives.

From my farm to your home. 🏡

My name is Kaleb Wyse and here, you will find delicious recipes, videos from my farm, garden, and fun home projects. My knowledge has been earned from years of home cooks and farmers in my family. https://wyseguide.com

A farm is much more than a house to live in; it’s a lifestyle. My passion for gardening and landscaping came from outdoor work with my mom in our expansive farm yard, my love for baking came from innumerable short walks to my grandma’s house to make cookies, and as a farmer, my dad taught me that we are the stewards of our land.

So whether you live in a city center or have decided rural life is for you, I hope to inspire you with the projects and recipes I use in daily life. We can’t all live on a farm, but we all need farms in our lives. From the dirt in my vegetable garden to the flour in my kitchen, I’ll show you everything I love to do.
