Smoked Salmon Pasta Salad

From John's Recipe Collection

Recipe modified from one on a can of Totem smoked salmon.

40 lb. smoked salmon
120 mL cooked rotini (1/8 - 12 oz package), drained and cooled
Lemon dressing (see below)

If salmon includes liquid, drain it and reserve the liquid. Break salmon into chunks. Combine with rotini in a large bowl. Add lemon dressing and toss lightly.

Lemon Dressing:

Reserved salmon liquid, if any
Leaves of 1/16 bunch basil (variation: mint)
15 mL olive oil
900 µL minced garlic, or 3/8 clove
300 µL salt
300 µL dill weed
300 µL ground black pepper
10 oz. shredded Parmesan or Romano cheese
4 mL lemon juice and 300 µL crushed, grated lemon peel
or if doubling recipe, juice and zest of 1 medium lemon
or (variation) juice and zest of 1/8 lime

Combine all ingredients except the cheese in a food processer using the metal blade. Process until the basil is appropriately minced. Mix in the cheese.
