Linguine With Peas Shiitake Mushrooms And Sage With Mixed Sauteed Vegetables Recipes

MEZZELUNE PASTA WITH PEAS AND SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of generously salted water to a boil. Blanch spinach briefly, about 15 seconds, then plunge into an ice bath. Drain, squeeze dry, and chop finely.
• Put ricotta in a mixing bowl and add Parmesan, chopped spinach, lemon zest, nutmeg and mint. Season with salt and pepper and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Roll pasta dough into thin sheets. Using a sharp cookie cutter, punch out 3-inch rounds; you should have about 36 pieces. Dust lightly with semolina flour, then cover with a clean, damp kitchen towel to keep them from drying out. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and sprinkle with semolina.
• Working in batches, fill 6 pasta rounds at a time: Lay pasta flat on a work surface and place about a tablespoon of filling in the center of each round. With a pastry brush or finger, moisten outer edge sparingly with water and fold over to make a half-moon, pressing to seal. Transfer to baking sheet. Continue until all rounds are filled. Dust tops lightly with semolina and store, uncovered in the refrigerator, until ready to cook.
• Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil for pasta.
• Put a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and the shiitakes. Season with salt and sauté quickly until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Remove mushrooms from pan and set aside. Add 2 more tablespoons butter to pan. When it sizzles, add peas and scallions and a little salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup water and cook uncovered for about 3 minutes. Return mushrooms to pan and turn off heat.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta: Drop mezzelune in boiling water and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove with a spider or slotted spoon and transfer to a warm platter. Reheat peas and mushrooms and pour over the pasta. Garnish with chives.

LINGUINE WITH MUSHROOM SAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook the linguine according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until softened and browned, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and saute 2 minutes more. Add the sage and saute 2 minutes more. Add salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste, stir, and remove from heat.
• Drain the cooked pasta and pour into a large pasta bowl. Add the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and toss. Add the mushroom mixture and toss again. Season with more salt and pepper if needed. Top with the grated parmesan cheese and offer more to pass at the table. Serve immediately.

SAUTEED SNAP PEAS WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray.
• Combine potatoes, mushrooms, and melted butter in a bowl and toss to combine. Spread vegetables onto the prepared baking sheet and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Roast in the preheated oven until cooked through and tender, about 45 minutes, turning every 15 minutes.
• After vegetables have been roasting for 35 minutes, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add snap peas and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and translucent and snap peas are tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Combine roasted potato mixture and sauteed snap peas in a large bowl, sprinkle with green onions, and toss to combine.

SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS AND SUGAR-SNAP PEAS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the canola and sesame oils over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the sugar over the mushrooms and then add the wine and soy sauce. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Add the sugar-snap peas, cover, reduce the heat to medium, and cook until the pea pods are just crisp-tender and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
