    Porcini Pasta


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 pound of pasta -- fresh or dried linguini or fettuccini
    Porcini mushrooms -- about 1-2 per person
    Italian parsley
    Salt and pepper
    High-quality parmesan cheese
    1 clove garlic sliced

    Recipe



    Porcini mushrooms can be harvested wild if you know exactly what to look for, or bought at any good organic grocery store. When choosing the porcini, select small, firm porcinis with cups not more than 2 to 3 inches across. Brush and wipe clean. Never put in water.

    Slice into 1/8 -inches vertically. Heat olive oil in cast iron pan and sauté porcinis until golden. Keep your pan very hot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 clove sliced garlic and sauté 2-3 minutes more.

    Meanwhile, cook the pasta. Add sautéed porcinis to your plated pasta and sprinkle parsley on top with a drizzle of olive oil. "Serve with beautiful, good parmesan, but not too much."
