CREAMY CHIVE PASTA WITH LEMON
This recipe is a good way to showcase any fresh chives you may have. In the spirit of buttered noodles with chives - or stir-fried lo mein with Chinese chives - this recipe uses the delicate alliums as an ingredient instead of a garnish. Their gentle onion flavor adds freshness to lemon-cream sauce, which is not unlike a delicate sour cream and onion dip. You can use crème fraîche for more tang, heavy cream for an Alfredo vibe, or ricotta for a hint of sweetness. To use another spring allium like ramps, leeks or a combination, thinly slice and simmer in heavy cream (not crème fraîche or ricotta) to soften before adding the other ingredients.

- In the same pot, make the sauce: Stir together the crème fraîche, 1/2 cup reserved pasta water, Parmesan, lemon zest and juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the pasta, return to medium heat, and cook, tossing vigorously, until the noodles are well coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add more pasta water as needed to gloss the noodles.

CREAMY CHIVE SAUCE
This is a delicous sauce that goes fantastic with any white meat, poultry or fish. It is a sauce that I first tasted in Nutter's restaurant (UK) served with pork. I bought his cook book which included the recipe and have made it myself countless times since. It is a family favourite and we all love it and use so much of it that this recipe designed to serve 4 actually only serves 3 of us!! A tip is to serve the sauce with a ladle or spoon instead of just pouring it so that you get plenty of the onion, otherwise the sauce tends to coem out and the onion stays in the bottom of the jug!
