Cooking Steps
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Wash and dry produce.
Heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon; cook, turning occasionally and adjusting heat if browning too quickly, until crispy, 6-10 minutes.
Turn off heat; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Carefully discard all but a thin layer of bacon fat from pan (you'll use it in Step 4). Once bacon is cool enough to handle, roughly chop.
Meanwhile, trim and discard woody bottom ends from asparagus; thinly slice stalks on a diagonal. Halve, peel, and thinly slice shallot. Thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
Using your hands, gently separate rigatoni.
Once water is boiling, add rigatoni to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 4-6 minutes.
Reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water (1 cup for 4 servings), then drain.
While pasta cooks, heat pan with bacon fat over medium-high heat. (TIP: If pan seems dry, add a drizzle of oil.) Add asparagus, shallot, and scallion whites; cook, stirring frequently, until browned and tender, 2-4 minutes.
To pan with veggies, add miso sauce concentrates, pork ramen stock concentrate, garlic powder, half the Sriracha, ½ cup plain water, and a pinch of sugar (all the Sriracha and ¾ cup plain water for 4 servings); stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Once sauce is simmering, add drained rigatoni and half the bacon. Cook, tossing, until pasta is evenly coated, 1-3 minutes. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, add reserved pasta cooking water 1 TBSP at a time.
Turn off heat; stir in sour cream, half the Parmesan, and 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4).
Divide pasta between bowls; top with remaining Parmesan, remaining bacon, and scallion greens. Serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
I don't even like asparagus but this was off the hook! So easy and way better than I expected!
The flavor is legitimately 10/10, but the portions were just pitiful. My husband is on a GLP1 and hardly eats and it wasn't even enough for him. I added a side salad but still feel hungry.
I didn't use the sour cream as I'm not a huge fan of it and the meal was delicious. I added a chopped up chicken breast to it, and it was the perfect amount of protein.
Absolutely amazing; so flavorful, filling, and easy to make! Will 100% get this again in the future!
It's perfect!! The fresh pasta is sooooo good. I hope I get this meal option again and again.
Love! Would be nice if it had a crunch element like peanuts or crispy onion
Excellent comfort food. The sweet savory umami is to die for
This was trying something very new for us and we absolutely loved it. Thanks.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! My kids who don't like veggies LOVED THIS!
The taste was too much. Bacon fat, butter and sour cream and Japanese ingredients were salty and very heavy.
