Creamy doesn’t have to mean heavy. Egg noodles are boiled then tossed with a light and silky sauce made by stirring together some tangy crème fraiche, pasta cooking water and lemon in this delectable side dish recipe. Finish it with chives for a touch of freshness and a generous amount of cracked pepper for some subtle heat.
