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.

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??

Sometimes, something simple is the best. My go-to Sometimes, something simple is the best. My go-to is a cheeseburger w/ extra toasted bun & onion. Bryan likes his double-double w/ onion. The fries were perfectly crispy, and I like to dip them in the spread sauce. Please order me 2 fries next time!😂 How do you like your In-N-Out?
Ice cream time! This Vanilla Blueberry Thyme Swirl Ice cream time! This Vanilla Blueberry Thyme Swirl Ice Cream is creamy, little vanilla-y w/ bits of blueberries & a hint of thyme. That vibrant blueberry swirls also makes the prettiest purple color too! I made this ice cream using my blueberry thyme jam, so it’s very easy.🫐🍨

Spring time means berries. Let starts w/ Blueberry Spring time means berries. Let starts w/ Blueberry Thyme Jam! Sweet, lemony & earthy. A nice surprising combo, but both blueberry & thyme compliment each other really well. I once served this once w/ a slice of Basque cheesecake, & it was fantastic! The jam is good on all sort of things, like yogurt and charcuterie board. 🫐

When I think of comfort food, this Satay Beef Cell When I think of comfort food, this Satay Beef Cellophane Noodles in Clay Pot (沙嗲牛肉粉絲煲) definitely is up there on the top. One of my favorites to order in Hong Kong! It’s hearty & rich. That tender beef & noodles are coated w/ a savory & slightly sweet satay sauce. Little kick from the chili & the earthiness from the mushroom. Bold flavors! Please just give me a bowl of rice already! Btw, this takes only 30 mins to put together, which makes a great weeknight dish.

Maude (@mauderestaurant) has reopened & we’re ba Maude (@mauderestaurant) has reopened & we’re back! It closed down during the pandemic & eventually was selling sweet & savory pies for a while. Once we heard Maude was about to reopen, we made reservation. It’s a 9-course tasting menu w/ the focus on California cuisine this time. Everything was incredible. We chose to sit on the chef’s table & watched them plating & cooking. Precision & speed w/ lots of components. We had our many firsts, like cactus, caviar, & black truffle. Our favorites of the night were caviar w/ peas, abalone & bread w/ aged butter. We really love this place & look forward to going back soon!

Am I dreaming? Hailing in Pasadena? The mix of hai Am I dreaming? Hailing in Pasadena? The mix of hail & rain probably lasted for a good 30-minute. I was very excited at first, then it got crazy. Hail was collecting everything & my patio started to flood. I took out a broom & removed some of the hail. That worked, the water started to move & subside eventually. So glad my apartment wasn’t flooded. Whew! I have seen hailing, but this is another level. The ground was covered in hail. Really incredible!
