  5. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
  6. Add in the almond flour and whisk to create a paste.

  9. Remove from heat and let the sauce sit for about 3 minutes.
  10. Add in the pasta and stir, coating it evenly in the creamy sauce.
  11. Cut the salmon into small pieces and the onion flowers. Next, lightly mix it into the pasta and sauce.
