Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve immediately, garnished with fresh dill and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Salt balance: salmon and capers are already salty. Taste before adding salt.
- Pasta temperature: it should be warm to slightly heat the salmon without cooking it.
- Fresh cheese: take it out 15 minutes before to ease mixing.
- Pairing: serve with a green salad and lemon vinaigrette. A dry white wine (Sancerre) pairs perfectly.
- Variations: add lemon zest, replace some cheese with heavy cream, or try a vegetarian version with mushrooms.
