SMOKED TROUT LINGUINE WITH ASPARAGUS AND LIME
They make the most amazing smoked trout here in Costa Rica and I've been looking for ways to use it other than as an appetizer. This is my take on a smoked salmon pasta dish I had once-upon-a-time! Note: this would probably be better with lemon, but they're almost impossible to find here. Let me know if it's an improvement!

Steps:
- Steam the asparagus until tender and still bright green, about five minutes. Drain and refresh under cold water. Dry on paper towels.
- Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the salt, pepper, milk, asparagus, smoked trout and chives.
- Drop a bit of egg into the pan; if it sizzles, pour in the egg mixture. Tilt the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, lifting the edges of the omelet to let the eggs run underneath during the first minute or two of cooking. Turn the heat down to low, cover (use a pizza pan if you don't have a lid that will fit your skillet) and cook 10 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while. Loosen the bottom of the omelet with a wooden spatula while tilting the pan from time to time, so that the bottom doesn't burn. The eggs should be just about set; cook a few minutes longer if they're not. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler.
- Finish the omelet under the broiler for one to two minutes, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Loosen the edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from the pan onto a large, round platter, and cut into wedges or diamond-shaped pieces. If serving the next day, cover with plastic and then foil. Refrigerate overnight.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
- Cut off tough ends of asparagus spears. Cut each on the bias into 1-inch lengths. There should be about 1 1/2 cups. Rinse well and drain.
- Add the asparagus to the boiling water and cook about 2 minutes. Remove asparagus with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Drop the fettuccine into salted boiling water. Let cook to desired degree of doneness (cooking time will range from about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes for fresh pasta to 9 minutes or more for dried). Reserve 2 tablespoons cooking water. Drain the pasta.
- Heat the butter in the pot in which the pasta was cooked. Add the asparagus pieces and the fettuccine. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add the reserved 2 tablespoons of cooking water and basil. Toss to blend. Serve hot with Parmesan cheese on the side.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Fettuccine: Use a high-quality fettuccine pasta for the best results. Look for a pasta that is made with durum wheat and has a slightly rough texture.
- Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Cook the fettuccine according to the package instructions, but be sure to remove it from the boiling water just before it is fully cooked. This will help the pasta to retain its shape and texture.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This includes the asparagus, smoked trout, and herbs.
- Don't Overcook the Asparagus: Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender-crisp. Overcooking will make it mushy.
- Flake the Smoked Trout: Before adding the smoked trout to the pasta, flake it into small pieces. This will help it to distribute evenly throughout the dish.
- Use a Light Hand with the Lemon Juice: Lemon juice can add a bright, acidic flavor to the pasta, but be careful not to add too much. A little bit goes a long way.
- Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish the pasta with fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or basil. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
This fettuccine with smoked trout and asparagus is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The combination of smoky trout, tender asparagus, and creamy sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new pasta dish to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
