Name: Fettucine with Smoked Salmon and Asparagus
Yield: Makes 4 servings
Ingredients: 8- to 9-oz dried egg fettuccine; 1 lb asparagus, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1/2-inch pieces; 1 cup heavy cream; 1 tablespoon drained bottled horseradish; 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill; 6 oz smoked salmon, cut into 1/2-inch-wide ribbons

A green salad is all you need to make this pasta — its creaminess sharpened with a touch of horseradish — into a complete dinner. When shopping, it's helpful to know that egg noodles are usually sold coiled into small nests.

Cooks' note:

·For a lighter sauce, you can replace 1/3 cup of the cream with an equal amount of the pasta-cooking water.
