PENNE WITH ASPARAGUS AND SMOKED SALMON CREAM
What speaks more of spring than asparagus? Velvety textures of cream and the smoked salmon are well balanced with crisp-tender asparagus and the freshness of lemon zest. This is a creamy flavorful dish that I've created on my own after trying some less than exciting versions from other cook books and magazines. I hope you enjoy!

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a pan, then fry the spring onions for 1 minute, until softened. Add the wine and boil hard to reduce to about 2 tbsp. Stir in the crème fraîche, season well and add the nutmeg. Bring to the boil and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Stir in the dill, if using, and squeeze in a little lemon juice. Set aside.
- Blanch the shelled broad beans in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes. Drain into a sieve and hold under running cold water to cool. Drain again and peel off the outer hard skin - make a nick in the tops and pop the beans out.
- Trim the asparagus - if it's young, it won't need much cut off the stems. Cut into halves or thirds. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water as per pack instructions, adding the asparagus 3 minutes before the end of cooking time. Cook until "al dente".
- Drain well, reserving a little pasta water. Toss the hot pasta and asparagus with the drained broad beans, smoked salmon and sauce, loosening with a spoonful or two of pasta water, if necessary. The heat of the pasta should reheat the sauce and slightly cook the smoked salmon, but stir over a gentle heat to warm through if necessary. Serve immediately.

SALMON AND ASPARAGUS PASTA
Dry sauce mix combines with asparagus and salmon to make a dish that will impress your friends--and you don't have to tell them how easy it is! Mezzi rigatoni is my favorite kind of pasta to use with this one, but ziti, penne, and other hearty pasta cuts will work just as well. Serve with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- Snap ends off asparagus. Slant-cut spears in 1-inch lengths. Steam until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Rinse under cold water, pat dry on paper towels and set aside. Cut salmon in slivers and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet. Add shallots and sauté over low heat until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in cream, increase heat and simmer about 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Add salmon and remove from heat. Season with pepper and lemon juice. Stir in asparagus.
- Boil fettuccine 2 to 3 minutes, until just tender. Drain, but allow a bit of moisture to cling to noodles. Transfer to a warm shallow serving dish. Reheat sauce to a simmer, check seasonings, fold in dill and pour over fettuccine. Serve at once, mixing ingredients with pasta as you serve. Top each portion, if desired, with heaping teaspoon of salmon caviar.

Tips:
- Choose the right asparagus. Look for asparagus spears that are bright green and have tight tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have brown spots.
- Cook the asparagus properly. Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of ways, but the most popular methods are steaming, roasting, and sauteing. Be careful not to overcook the asparagus, as it will become mushy.
- Use high-quality smoked salmon. Smoked salmon is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality product. Look for smoked salmon that is firm and has a deep pink color.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Smoked salmon is already cooked, so you just need to warm it through. Overcooking the salmon will make it tough and dry.
- Serve the dish immediately. Fettuccine with asparagus and smoked salmon is best served immediately after it is made. The asparagus and salmon will lose their flavor if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Fettuccine with asparagus and smoked salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish perfectly every time.
