Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil and cook the bow tie pasta according to package directions until al denté.
- When noodles are done cooking, use a slotted spoon to transfer the pasta to a colander, reserving the pasta cooking water in the pot. Reheat the pot of water over medium heat and add the chopped asparagus spears, cooking until they turn bright green, about 1-2 minutes, then transfer to the same colander as the pasta. You want the asparagus to still have a snap to but not taste raw.
- While the pasta and asparagus are cooking, pour the cream into a 12-inch skillet and bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer and cook until reduced by half and the cream easily coats the back of a spoon.
- Add the lemon zest, Parmesan cheese, fresh dill and cooked salmon to the cream and stir until the Parmesan is melted into the cream and the salmon is warmed through. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Add the cooked bow tie pasta to the skillet and toss to coat. Add more salt and pepper if desired, and top with more Parmesan cheese and dill if desired. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Boil a salted pot of water for your pasta. Cook it al dente according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, trim your asparagus (I cut about 1.5" of the ends off while the asparagus is still tied up in a bunch to make it easy). Cut it into smaller pieces. Prep your other ingredients and sprinkle the salmon with salt & pepper and the Italian seasoning.
- Add the butter and oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon for 3 minutes/side and then take it out of the pan and set it aside.
- Add the asparagus to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes (3 minutes if it's on the thicker side or you like it softer).
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the lemon juice + zest, cream, and parmesan to the pan. Give it a good stir then add the salmon back. Break it up into smaller pieces with your spoon. Cook the sauce for another few minutes until the salmon is fully cooked through, the asparagus is tender, and the sauce has reduced a bit. The sauce is not meant to be very thick in this recipe. Toss the sauce with the drained pasta and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Snap off the ends of the asparagus where they break naturally and peel the stalks. Cut the asparagus on a slant to pieces about an inch long.

- Cut the salmon into slivers, add it to the cream and remove the skillet from the heat. Season with pepper and lemon juice. Add the asparagus.
- When the pot of water is boiling, add the fettuccine, stir it once or twice, then cook two to three minutes after the water has returned to a boil. Drain well.
- Briefly reheat the sauce. Transfer the fettuccine to a warm serving bowl, pour the sauce over it and toss. Sprinkle with dill and serve.

FETTUCCINE WITH MUSHROOMS AND ASPARAGUS
Steps:
- 1. Bring 6 quarts water to a boil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over high heat, then add 2 tablespoons salt.
- 2. While waiting for the water to boil, heat the oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion and pepper flakes and sauté quickly to keep the ingredients from scorching. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until the mushrooms darken slightly in color and are softened but still holding their shape, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and asparagus and cook, stirring gently, for 2 minutes. Stir in the cream, immediately reduce the heat to keep it from scorching, and cook for several minutes.
- 3. Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts in a sauté pan over low heat, shaking the pan, just until they are warm and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- 4. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 7 to 9 minutes from the time the water returns to a boil (10 minutes if you are using pappardelle).
- 5. Add the basil, butter, pine nuts, and cheese to the pan with the mushrooms and toss well.
- 6. Reserve a cup or so of the pasta's cooking liquid, then drain the pasta and add it to the pan with the mushrooms, asparagus, and sauce. If the sauce seems too dry, stir in a few tablespoons of the reserved pasta water. Toss, taste, and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, and more pepper flakes if necessary.
- 7. Present the pasta in a bowl and serve family style from the center of the table, or divide among individual plates.
- Your Nightly Specials
- Mushrooms: Instead of using the cremini, use 1 cup dried porcini mushrooms.
- Dried Mushrooms: Dried mushrooms like porcini, morel, and chanterelle offer a quick way to add flavor to cooking and are especially useful in the off season or winter months. Always rinse dried mushrooms under cold running water to remove any lingering dirt and sand, then reconstitute them in hot water for 20 minutes, drain, and strain the liquid. Save the liquid for soups and sauces. Keeping a small packet of dried mushrooms, which costs just a few dollars, in your pantry will five earthy flavor on demand.
- Use a spice grinder to grind dried porcini to a powder. This seasoning powder will very economically make a full pot of risotto taste like a much more costly version, something many restaurants do to make flavors pop. Add 1 tablespoon to the finished mushrooms for a powerful and full flavor at an economical price.
- Porcini Mushrooms: Fresh porcini are among the most delicious of mushrooms. When they are available each fall, by all means use them, although they are expensive and need to be cooked as quickly as possible because they are highly perishable.
- Add 1/2 cup of blanched and shocked fresh or frozen peas, spincach, and/or broccoli buds.
- Toss some shredded, leftover roasted turkey or duck meat into the pan along with the cooked pasta.
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.

FETTUCCINE WITH SALMON, MUSHROOM AND ASPARAGUS
Steps:
- To start, fill your kettle with water and bring it to the boil. While water is heating place a pot on the stove over medium heat to warm up. Once the kettle has boiled, transfer water to the pot. Season water with salt and throw in the linguini, cooking for the time outlined on the packet - usually around 7 mins (this kettle to pot trick is one my mother often uses to speed up a midweek pasta). While the linguini is cooking, heat olive oil in a frypan over medium-high heat and sautee mushrooms, asparagus and garlic for 3 mins. Lower heat to simmer and pour in the cream. Simmer for another 3 minutes then add parsley, salt and pepper and stir well to combine. Then remove from heat. When linguini is cooked, strain the water from the pot and transfer the linguini into the frypan with the cream mixture. Stir the pasta through the sauce till well combined. Flake the hot smoked salmon into small pieces and stir the majority of it through the pasta reserving a few pieces to place on top of the dish after plating. Divide the pasta between two bowls, top with the remaining salmon, add a sprinkle of chopped parsley and enjoy.
Tips for Making Fettuccine with Salmon, Mushroom, and Asparagus:
- Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste.
- Cook the pasta al dente. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily become overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center.
- Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add depth of flavor to the dish.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. This dish can be customized to your own taste.
- Serve immediately. This dish is best served hot, so don't let it sit around for too long before eating.
