Tips:

  • Choose high-quality canned salmon: Opt for wild-caught, sustainably sourced salmon for the best flavor and texture.
  • Drain the salmon well: Before flaking the salmon, make sure to drain off any excess liquid to prevent the pasta from becoming watery.
  • Flake the salmon gently: Use a fork to gently flake the salmon, taking care not to break it up too much.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, but aim for al dente (slightly firm) rather than fully cooked, as it will continue to cook in the sauce.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is key to a delicious canned salmon pasta. Try a creamy sauce made with milk or cream, a light tomato sauce, or a pesto sauce.
  • Add vegetables for extra nutrition and flavor: Sautéed onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach are all great additions to canned salmon pasta.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: A sprinkling of fresh parsley, dill, or chives adds a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
