Salmon and Pasta all Amatriciana




We decided to make a Salad using the leftover Smoked Salmon we had made on the egg. We had purchased a new Japanese mandolin slicer and wanted to try it.

We shredded: endive, celery root and fennel. We made a lemon vinaigrette and topped with the smoked salmon, it was very refreshing and tasty. I don’t usually like leftover fish, but the smoked salmon keeps!

For the pasta we made Pasta All 'Amatriciana, a very simple but delicious Sauce with Canned Whole Tomatoes and sautéed onions and my favorite seasoning: bacon. We served it with Bucatini pasta which looks like regular pasta but actually as a tube. It holds the sauce. We topped with grated pecorino from The Cheese Store of Silverlake. This recipe is from The Zuni Cafe Cookbook. You can find the recipe in our blog recipe of Nov. 21, 2007. Click the date to get the recipe.
