First, clean and finely chop the asparagus. Place it in a saucepan, sprinkle with salt and a little sugar, and cook until the stalks are tender. Meanwhile, boil the pasta for 2 minutes and then drain. For the sauce, place the broth and cream in a saucepan, add the butter and flour, and bring to a boil. Season with salt, garlic, and pepper.
