How to Make Bow Tie Pasta With Smoked Salmon Farfalle Al Salmone Affunicato
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound of farfalle pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While the pasta cooks, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup of finely chopped onion and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 8 ounces of smoked salmon, cut into bite-sized pieces, to the saucepan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
- Pour in 1/4 cup of vodka and carefully ignite (optional, for a hint of smoky flavor). Let the alcohol burn off completely.
- Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/4 cup of tomato sauce, 1/4 cup of chopped fresh basil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until slightly thickened. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little pasta water to adjust the consistency.
- Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Serve immediately, garnished with extra basil and grated Parmesan cheese (optional). Serve with a side of crusty garlic bread.
