Smoked Salmon Linguine with Lemon Cream Sauce #pasta #smokedsalmon | The Missing Lokness

Bryan and I bought a few cans of smoked salmon from Salmon Etc. in Ketchikan, Alaska. I just couldn’t resist not to get anything from Alaska. Salmon seems to be the perfect thing. These canned salmon are pretty good. Very smokey. After getting the salmon, I was thinking how to cook with them. Salmon Etc. gave us a few recipe. I picked this pasta one with lemon cream sauce. This recipe may look heavy, but the lemon juice and zest definitely lightened it up. The sauce was creamy and smokey. Good to eat with a side salad. The most important is that this dish reminded me of the good times in Alaska.

Keyword cream, lemon, linguine, pasta, smoked salmon
Servings 2 people
Author Lokness

Ingredients

  • 6 – 7 ounces smoked salmon (canned or packaged)
  • 8 ounces dry linguine
  • 1 ½ tablespoons butter
  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/3 cup shallots (finely diced)
  • dash of red pepper flakes
  • juice from ½ lemon
  • zest from ½ lemon
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • salt
  • ground black pepper

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, place in the salmon and break into small pieces with a fork. Set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water (salted) to a boil over high heat. Cook the pasta until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally. Save 1 cup pasta water. Drain pasta. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, warm up the butter and olive oil. Add shallots and cook for 8 minutes. Throw in a dash of red pepper flakes. Add lemon juice and zest. Pour in the heavy cream and ½ cup reserved pasta water. Mix well. Cook until warm. Add the salmon pieces and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the pasta. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more reserved pasta water. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Notes

  1. I used canned salmon, but you can use the regular smoked salmon that you find in the fridge of supermarket.
  2. I highly recommend using sockeye salmon, either canned or packaged. It has much more flavors!
  3. Want to get some Alaska salmon? Buy

    I had some wild smoked salmon left from the holidays, made this recipe and it was just right! Didn’t have shallot so I used dried onion, plus some lemon salt, along with the lemon juice and cream. Tasty??

The food in the picture is sweet glutinous rice dumplings w/ black sesame 落湯糍(糯米糍). The word “糍” sounds similar to “錢”, so the dumplings represent money. Eating them will bring you lots of wealth! 

The dumplings are chewy & gooey like mochi. Coated in black sesame seeds. Right before eating, dip them in sugar. Perfect sweet treat for the new year!

We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! T We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! Their soft serve is creamy, yet not too sweet. Lots of choices too, like ube, matcha, black sesame etc. The taiyaki is crispy on the outside & filled w/ goodness, like Nutella, red bean & custard. My only wish is that they open a store in the San Gabriel Valley, so we don’t have to travel far every time!😆

2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much bette 2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much better year for me personally. We traveled a bit more (Denver, Monterey, Maine, & Boston) & ate lots of incredible food. I’m drooling just thinking about some of the food. Also, my parents flew in from HK. We finally got to see each other after 3 years. We spent time together & attended my sister’s wedding. And we all finally got covid. It’s looking like things are getting back to normal. I truly hope it is!

Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) a Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) are so damn GOOD! 🥟 Smokey, little sweet, meaty, & crispy skin. I could eat a few plates of those! We first tried the sampler, but was most impressed by the galbi ones. We like the pork too, but the jalapeño one was way too spicy for my taste. It actually has half of a jalapeño in it.🔥
