- with a pasta machine. Cut into 1/4-inch-wide strips and put on a
- baking sheet dusted with flour.

- the fish with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and a pinch of pepper. Cook 3
- minutes per side. Remove the salmon and take the pan off the heat.

- salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Break the fish into chunks and add to
- the pan.
- 3. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the fresh fettuccine 1 minute, add the asparagus and cook until just done, about 3 minutes longer. If
- using dry fettuccine cook about 9 minutes before adding the asparagus.
- Drain. Toss gently with the salmon mixture.
