Farfalle with Salmon in Creamy Vodka Sauce step by step

  1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the farfalle, stirring occasionally, until al dente..
  2. Meanwhile, in a large, deep skillet, melt the butter. Add the shallot and cook over moderate heat until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the vodka and cook until evaporated, about 1 minute. Add 2 cups of the heavy cream and simmer over moderately high heat, stirring often until reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir in the salmon, season with salt and pepper and remove from heat. In a small bowl, beat the egg yolks with the remaining 1/4 cup of heavy cream..
  3. Drain the farfalle. Add it to skillet and stir well. Add the egg-yolk mixture and stir over low heat until warm and sauce is creamy, about 30 seconds. Serve with chives on top..

Add the onion and crushed red pepper, season with salt and cook. The dinner comes together in the time it takes the pasta to cook, and the flavor is wonderfully lemony. I love salmon, and this is one way to make a half a pound stretch to feed four. The ingredient list is short: farfalle (or bow tie pasta,) salmon, frozen peas, cream, lemon, and a dash of Parmesan cheese. This white wine is crisp and fresh, full of bright herbs and light honey.
