INGREDIENTS<br />

Salt<br />

1/2 pound dry taglierini or fettuccine<br />

pasta<br />

2 tablespoons unsalted butter<br />

1 shallot, minced<br />

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons crème fraîche<br />

or sour cream<br />

1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf<br />

parsley<br />

1 teaspoon chopped chives<br />

Freshly ground pepper<br />

2 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon,<br />

cut into 1/2-inch ribbons (1/2 cup)<br />

30g tin of Ebène caviar<br />

METHOD<br />

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a large pinch of salt. Add the pasta and cook<br />

until al dente. Drain and reserve about 1/2 cup of the cooking water.<br />

In a large, deep skillet, melt the butter over moderate heat. When the foam subsides, add<br />

the minced shallot and cook over moderately low heat for 2 minutes, stirring.<br />

Add the crème fraîche, parsley and chives.<br />

Stir in about 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta cooking water and season with pepper. Add<br />

the pasta and smoked salmon ribbons and toss well. Add up to 2 more tablespoons of<br />

the reserved cooking water if the pasta seems too dry. Remove from the heat.<br />

Serve in shallow bowls, garnished with as much Ebène caviar as one likes.
