Bucatini with tomato sauce and salmon

25 minutes

Bucatini with tomato sauce and salmon is an exquisite combination of tender pasta, juicy lightly salted salmon, and aromatic tomato sauce. This recipe is inspired by European culinary traditions where pasta plays an important role in gastronomic art. Bucatini, similar to spaghetti but with a characteristic hole inside, holds rich sauces well, enhancing their flavor with every forkful. The tomato sauce adds a slight acidity that pairs beautifully with the buttery taste of salmon. Basil adds fresh herbal notes while grated Parmesan finishes the dish with a light nutty flavor. This dish is suitable for both a cozy family dinner and an elegant formal lunch.
