This recipe for creamy smoked salmon pasta is both sophisticated and easy to prepare, perfect for a weeknight meal or entertaining guests. It recommends using short pasta varieties to better trap the cream sauce. The dish features hot-smoked salmon over lox for added texture, and the sauce is built directly in the pot after boiling the pasta. Lemon zest and a dash of lemon juice enhance the flavor, while dill or any soft herb can be substituted. A crisp white wine or seltzer pairs well with this dish, enhancing the dining experience.
This creamy smoked salmon pasta recipe is elegant enough to serve to company but quick and easy enough to make on a weeknight.
For easy cleanup, you'll boil the pasta first, then build the sauce in the same pot.
Finish the creamy sauce with lemon zest and juice for bright flavor-just be sure to reserve the lemon juice until the dish is off the heat to keep its vibrancy.
If you're not into dill, any soft herb can take its place; try basil, chives, or tarragon.
