How To Make fettuccine with smoked salmon

  • Step 1
    In the top of a double boiler, combine cream cheese and butter. Heat to melting, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and whisk mixture until blended. Whisk in evaporated milk, pepper, and salt until blended. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and set aside. Cook fettuccine in salted water according to package directions.
