Smoked Salmon Penne - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb penne (or your favourite shaped pasta like bowties, long pastas like spaghetti don't work as well)
1 cup room temperature cream cheese
1 bunch fresh dill, chopped
4 green onions, sliced
1 lemon, juice and zest of
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup capers
8 ounces smoked salmon (or more)
sprinkled sea salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Preparation

Bring a large pot of salted water on to boil. Season it liberally with salt. When it boils, add your choice of pasta. Cook to el dente, until the pasta is cooked through but still pleasantly chewy.
Scoop out 1 cup or so of the starchy cooking water. Drain the pasta but not quite all the way. Leave it a bit wet. Put the pasta back into the pot along with a splash or two of the reserved water, about 1/2 cup or so in total then immediately add the rest of the ingredients.
While the pasta is till steaming hot toss well melting the cheese and forming the creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
