Best 4 Pasta With Smoked Trout And Golden Caviar Recipes

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH CAVIAR AND LEMON

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Whisk the heavy cream and sour cream in a large skillet and season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat, whisking, until the mixture thickens and all the sour cream melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Add a few grates of lemon zest and some of the lemon juice. Taste for seasoning. At this point the sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons salt and bring the water back up to a boil. Add the pasta to the pot and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn?t clump or stick to the bottom, about 2 minutes. Drain the pasta in a colander, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
• Add the pasta to the skillet and toss to coat with the cream sauce. Shut off the heat and allow the pasta to rest in the sauce for 2 minutes, tossing to coat from time to time. If the sauce is too thin, simmer over low heat for 2 additional minutes. If it is too thick, simply thin it out with some of the reserved pasta water. Taste for seasoning. Add more salt or lemon juice, if needed.
• Spoon a small amount of caviar onto 4 serving plates. Use a fork to twirl the pasta and make a large forkful. Use your index finger to gently coax the pasta off the fork and on top of the caviar on the plate. Repeat with the remaining plates. Spoon any leftover sauce over the pasta. Note: The sauce thickens quickly, so keep it loose with a little pasta water, if needed, as you plate. Sprinkle with the chives and a touch more grated lemon zest.

STRAW AND HAY PASTA WITH CREAM AND SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Cook the pasta and while it is cooking, melt butter over low heat. Stir in the salmon and warm it for a few seconds Add the cream and reduce over low heat until somewhat thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper. When pasta is done, drain it and return it to saucepan and toss with sauce; adjust seasoning and serve garnished with chives and caviar if you wish.

SMOKED TROUT & PEA PASTA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling water according to pack instructions, adding the peas for the last 3 mins. Meanwhile, flake the trout and set aside, then mix the yogurt with the horseradish, salt and pepper.
• Drain the pasta, then return to the pan and stir in the trout and yogurt, letting the heat of the pasta warm the sauce. Tastes great with a crisp green salad.

LEE BAILEY'S PASTA WITH GOLDEN CAVIAR

Steps:

• Combine the crème fraîche, Calvados and bay leaves in a large saucepan and whisk until blended. Heat to boiling over medium heat. Reduce heat to very low and keep warm, stirring occasionally while cooking the pasta.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 3 tablespoons of the butter and all of the pasta. Cook until the pasta is just done, still firm to the teeth, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
• Whisk the egg yolk and the remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a large serving bowl until blended. Add the hot pasta and toss gently to coat the strands. Discard the bay leaves and pour the crème fraîche mixture over the pasta. Add about 3/4 of the caviar and toss gently until mixed. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve at once on warm plates, topping each portion with a heaping spoonful of the remaining caviar.
