I tried recipe [smoked salmon pasta 10819] on 6th feb for a special dinner[our 32nd wedding anniversary ]Iwould like to say it was delicious we both enjoyed it very much I will be making it again thank you carol -
yummy! I love salmon and this was very tasty and easy to make! -
As I was making this pasta I became a little worried as I had tasted the sauce and thought it was somewhat bland. But OH what a difference the parmesan and basil make!! after combining the pasta and sauce and letting them cook together(I think this is an important step plus it gives you a minute to do some preliminary cleanup) a little then sprinkling generously with the basil and especially the parmesan cheese. THIS PASTA WAS SO GOOD!! My boyfriend raved about it. I did also sprinkle on a little green onion cause I like color, but I dont think it affected the taste of the dish much. I also used spaghetti because thats what I had. I will defenitly be making this again. AND bonus it's quick and easy with a short ingrdients list! Thanks for another great recipe. -
A friend gave me some smoked salmon as a gift from her trip and I set out to find a recipe to use it in. This one sounded good, but turned out kind of bland. It needed more salt and some garlic. There also seemed to be too much pasta and not enough sauce. This wasn't bad, but not something I will make again.

Great dish and fast to make. I don't think I could've ordered and picked up a pizza in the time it took me to cook it. I had no basil, so I used fresh parsly instead, wich worked well I thought. Also I added the juice from half a lemon after mixing the pasta with the sauce -uhmm.

I don't think I'm a great cook but I'm the kind of cook who can walk into the kitchen and find good things in the fridge and pantry and make it into a meal that everyone thinks is pretty darn good. Sometimes I use a recipe and sometimes...not so much.
I have a great collection of cookbooks, and I love reading them and studying the pictures. Sometimes I even cook the recipes, LOL! And that is why I love Zaar, an unending source of recipes and pictures. It's heaven!
