Farfalle with red fish - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Absolutely! You can substitute salmon with other firm fish like cod, halibut, or even canned tuna for a quicker option. Just adjust cooking times as needed.
For a vegetarian version, replace the fish with mushrooms, tofu, or chickpeas. Use vegetable broth instead of water for extra flavor when cooking the pasta.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan with a splash of water or broth to prevent drying.
Yes, but pasta can become mushy when thawed. Freeze without tomatoes, and add fresh ones when reheating. Consume within 1 month for best quality.
Replace processed cheese with cream cheese, heavy cream, or a splash of milk stirred in at the end. Grated Parmesan also adds richness.
Serve with a crisp green salad, garlic bread, or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal. A light white wine complements the flavors.
Yes, use 1/3 the amount of dried parsley (since it’s more concentrated). Add it with the garlic for even flavor distribution.
Halve all ingredients for 2-3 portions. Keep cooking times the same but use smaller pots to maintain proper heat distribution.
