Lemon and Fennel Cream Pasta Sauce

Eclair

Jellied Cream.
Like it? Had it?
Thickened cream.
Never knew it.
Cream + Gelatine.
What a fraud.

Process for coming up with this:
Ubaldi Saccotini al Salmone -> Lemon-> Cream -> Fresh

Parsley

Fennel->Small Bottle of Pinot Chardy Sparklin'.

Saccotini al Salmone look like little wontons. Grated the lemon peel of two lemons finely, cooked in little butter for a minute or two. In went the sparkling, simmered for a few minutes. Cup of whipping cream. Simmer and stir for another two with a tbs of fennel leaves. Pour over the Saccotini and add some parmesan.

Fresh and tart creamy with the fennel adding an unexpected flavour disorient. Liked it a lot. A lot. Saccotini could have gone harder with the salmon, but why not just have fresh pasta with smoked salmon. Capers?
