Pasta with Creamy Mushroom Sauce
Pasta with Creamy Mushroom Sauce
AUTHOR Mushroom Council
Ingredients:
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 pound dry pappardelle pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 yellow onion, minced
1 clove garlic, crushed
8 ounces crimini mushrooms, cleaned, stems removed and minced, mushroom caps, quartered
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, plus more for serving
Instructions:
Fill large pot with salted water and bring to boil over high heat. Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water. Drain and set
aside.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and minced mushroom stems. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add mushroom caps, cream and season with salt and pepper. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for an additional 4 to 5 minutes.
Stir in cheese and pasta until coated. If sauce is too thick, stir in reserved pasta
water. Garnish with additional cheese, if desired.
Gail's Notes: I'm looking forward to making this and using mushroom ravioli (instead of the pasta mentioned above).
