Ao-nori Pasta with Smoked Salmon

Posted April 22nd, 2010 in Food 5 Comments »

Very simple pasta with smoked salmon and ao-nori.  Ao-nori, also known as green laver, is dried and powdered green seaweed and it has distinctive flavor.  You should have seen it as a topping on Okonomiyaki, Takoyaki and other Japanese dishes.  This goes well with smokey salmon and mild Parmesan.

  • 2 portion pasta
  • 100 g smoked salmon
  • 1/2 onion

  1. Bring a large pot of water (salted) to the boil.  Cook pasta to al dente.
