Tagliatelle ai funghi (tagliatelle with mushrooms)
Tagliatelle ai funghi porcini (or tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms), with a perfect creamy sauce, repared in 20 minutes.
INGREDIENTS
- 400 g fresh porcini mushrooms (or 40 grams of dried porcini)
- 250 g dry tagliatelle pasta
- 1 middle-sized onion
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 70 ml cooking cream
- 70 ml sour cream
- 30 ml white wine (optional)
- salt & black pepper
- fresh parsley
INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare a pot for cooking tagliatelle and fill it with salted water. When adding tagliatelle the water should be boiling.
- If you're preparing tagliatelle with fresh mushrooms, clean them with a dry cloth and cut them to thin, longer slices.
- Peel and crush the garlic cloves. Dice the onions to small pieces and fry them in hot olive oil (slowly) until they become dark yellow and tranluscent.
- Add the mushrooms to the pan and saute for a few minutes. When the liquid evaporates, pour in the cream with a half glass of water or wine. Add salt and pepper to the mushrooms and cook on low heat for another 5-7 minutes.
- In the meantime, cook the tagliatelle boiling, salted water for five minutes.
- When cooked and strained, add them to the mushrooms and serve the delightful dish fresh and hot, sprinkled with parsley or parmesan cheese. Enjoy :)
NOTES
- If possible, use cold-pressed organic olive oil for cooking porcini.
- Fresh, homemade tagliatelle will taste indescribably better than premade dry pasta from the shop.
- Use fresh, healthy porcini mushrooms preferably picked on the same day. Do not keep your mushrooms in the refrigerator for longer than a day.
- Adding half a glass of white wine will delightfully enhance the rich taste of the porcini mushrooms with the cream.
- Don't wash porcinis under running water; use a dry cloth to clean them instead.
- Cook only the amount of mushrooms you plan to eat to avoid reheating. You can reheat tagliatelle after being stored properly in a closed container in a refrigerator. The best way to reheat them is in a pan with butter and serve them with freshly made porcini.
