Recipes Ingredients Seafood Recipes Salmon Recipes Farfalle Pasta with Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese 3.7 (125) Close Prep Time: 10 mins Total Time: 20 mins Servings: 4 The mild cream cheese perfectly balances the salty, intense flavors of the capers and salmon. Directions Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Add onion to pot; immediately drain pasta mixture, and return to pot. Add cream cheese, dill, capers, and salmon to pasta. Toss, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time to create a thin sauce that coats farfalle (you may not need all the water). Season lightly with salt and pepper. Serve.
