Pasta al limone with Parmesan Foam

Lately, I have posted many meals with fish, so it was time for something different. Sometimes, I have periods, when I can not eat meat or eggs. Not the best timing before Easter, but what can I do. However, cheese or fish are always welcome. If cheese for lunch, well, then the first choice is almost always pasta. I made fresh pasta and served with lemon sauce, barba di Frate and parmesan foam. The sauce contains no cream, but it is part of the parmesan foam.


Ingredients:
1 lemon
150 ml white wine
150 ml chicken stock
olive oil
salt, pepper

Reduce whie wine, chicken stock together with the lemon zest by half. Season with lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. For the parmesan foam simply bring 100 ml of cream to the boil, add 50 g of grated parmesan, but do not cook it any longer and foam it with help of a mixer, season if needed.
