Creamy Smoked Salmon Spaghetti

Italian cuisine is a big favorite in my family and certainly on the blog. We regularly eat delicious homemade lasagna, spaghetti with broccoli and ground beef, and macaroni casserole with mascarpone tomato sauce. Recently, creamy spaghetti with smoked salmon has also been often on the table.

It is easy to make and also has a creamy and full taste with a subtle hint of mustard and garlic. The salty taste of the smoked salmon and Parmesan cheese combines so well with sweet tomatoes and spaghetti.

This is a perfect recipe for a lovely evening at home. Enjoy this tasty and simple dish!

Top Tip

Boil pasta in water with a good spoonful of salt. As the Italians say, cook the pasta in seawater. That gives the spaghetti much more flavor.

Add the crème Fraîche and mustard and heat slowly until it is warm. If the sauce becomes too thick, add two tablespoons of milk.

1 pound spaghetti

Notes

1. Vegetables: I usually serve this with a delicious Caprese salad because it goes well with it. But you can also add vegetables to this recipe. Spinach that you fry with the garlic or boiled broccoli added to the meal with the sun-dried tomatoes are delicious alternatives.

2. Crème fraîche: You can replace it with, sour cream, heavy or cooking cream. This gives a less thick sauce and a slightly different taste.

3. Storage
Due to the crème fraîche and smoked salmon, you cannot store leftovers.
