This is the pasta recipe which is the eldest one in my personal cooking experience. I basically learn this basic recipe from Pasquale Carpino (already the Name sounded like a melody) an Italian from origin, who became a Chef in Toronto, Canada, and who became famous through his cooking television shows in the 70 ies & 80 ies.As a teenager, I was curious about learning new recipes, Chef Pasquale was doing basically the same idea at every show making Italian food easy to prepare, from fish to meat combine with pasta and desert I remember while my parent was not at home.Me and my brother looking at the TV show, one night we decided to prepare ourself this recipe with the canned of salmon. It became a favorite of me.
