Linguine With Smoked Salmon Sauce Recipes

SALMON ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente (still firm but just cooked through). (Note 6)
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a deep fry pan over medium high heat. (Note 7)
• Add the shallots and sauté for 2 minutes or until tender.
• Add the cream and bring to boil. Turn heat down to medium low and simmer for 3 minutes.
• Remove the fry pan from the heat and stir through the Parmigiano Reggiano, salt and pepper until the sauce is smooth.
• TAKE OUT 1/2 cup of pasta water PLUS scoop out an extra mug (extra, just in case). Then drain the pasta in a colander.
• Transfer the pasta and 1/2 cup of reserved pasta water into the fry pan with the sauce. Add salmon. Return the fry pan to the stove over medium heat. Toss very gently to coat the pasta in the sauce and allow the sauce to emulsify (Note 6) for 1 1/2 - 2 minutes, until the sauce coats the pasta - there should be no sauce pooled at the bottom of the skillet. (Note 7)
• Remove from the stove and serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmigiano Reggiano and fresh parsley, if using.

Steps:

• While the linguine is boiling (see page 181), melt the butter in a small wok or a medium skillet. Toss in the scallions, and sauté gently for 1 minute, stirring. Splash in the vodka and let it cook down a little. Tear or cut the salmon into small bite-sized pieces, and stir them into the sauce. Pour in the cream and bring to a simmer. When the linguine is done al dente, scoop it up with a spider and tongs, letting the water drain off, and mix it in with the sauce. Grind pepper generously over the pasta, and stir in the capers and parsley, then spoon it all up into a warm bowl.
