Pasta With Porcini Mushroom Sauce Recipes

TAGLIATELLE WITH PORCINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Put water on to boil for the pasta. Add salt once it starts to boil.
• Clean the fresh mushrooms by cutting off the end of the stalk. It would be better not to rinse with water, given that the fungus absorbs it. You can use a small brush to remove any soil, or a damp cloth.
• Cut the mushrooms into pieces
• Fry the peeled garlic cloves in the olive oil, then remove them when golden and add the mushrooms.
• Cook them for about 3-4 minutes until they start to brown. If using frozen mushrooms add after the fresh ones have browned a little
• Add wine and nepitella or thyme, increase the heat and cook until the alcohol has evaporated
• Reduce the heat and add salt and pepper.
• Continue to cook for about another 10-15 minutes. Lower the heat once mushrooms are cooked through and add the butter. When the butter has melted remove the pan from the heat.
• Cook the pasta in salted boiling water, remove a glass of the pasta cooking water to be used later and then drain and add the pasta to the pan with the mushrooms and butter.
• Toss everything together over a low heat. The pasta absorbs liquid very quickly so if it looks too dry, add a little of the pasta cooking water at a time until you get the right creaminess.
• Serve immediately with grated parmigiano or vegetarian parmesan as required.

MUSHROOM MEDALLIONE PASTA WITH PORCINI SAUCE

Steps:

• For the mushroom filling: Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat, and then saute the garlic until golden, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, onions, some sea salt and pepper and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Deglaze the pot with the white wine and porcini powder, and let reduce 30 seconds. Transfer to a food processor and pulse a few times until the vegetables are minced, and then pour into a bowl and fold in the ricotta, parsley and Romano. For assembling the medallione: Whisk the egg with 2 tablespoons cold water to create an egg wash. Spoon 2 tablespoons of mushroom filling into each pasta square and brush the edges with some egg wash. Place another pasta square on top, pressing the edges together with your fingers, and then seal the square shut with a fork. Boil the medallione in salted water until al dente, 2 minutes, and then place in a bowl. Ladle some Demi-Glace on top, and garnish with shaved Romano and coarsely cracked pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the veal bones in a roasting pan and drizzle with the olive oil. Roast until browned, 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, and then transfer to a large pot. Deglaze the roasting pan with water, scraping up the browned bits, and pour into the pot. Add the parsley, peppercorns, carrots, bay leaves, onions, thyme, celery and leeks and top off with cold water. Throw in the tomato paste and mix. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and then turn the heat down to medium-low and let simmer until reduced to 1/4 of the original volume, 10 to 12 hours. Strain the broth, and then ladle through a wire mesh sieve into a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook to reduce, 2 to 4 hours, skimming off the top every 30 minutes. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, mix in the sage.

PORCINI MUSHROOM SAUCE

• Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until onion browns, about 15 minutes. Add Marsala and white wine. Increase heat; boil until most liquid evaporates, about 7 minutes. Add rosemary, mushrooms and both stocks. Pour in reserved mushroom liquid, leaving any sediment behind. Boil until liquid mixture is reduced to 2 cups, about 15 minutes.

• Add butter to a large, nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. When butter has melted, add parsley and garlic; stir to combine. Stir in chopped mushrooms. Moisten the mixture with a few tablespoons reserved soaking water. Cook, stirring a few times, until the moisture has largely evaporated, about 5 minutes.
• Add cream and wine and stir to combine. Cook at barely a simmer until liquid has reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

TAGLIATELLE WITH PORCINI BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Tagliatelle: Mound flour on a clean work surface or in a large bowl. Make a well in center. Add egg, yolks, oil, and warm water to well. Using a fork and stirring outward from center, gradually incorporate flour into egg mixture until a ragged dough forms.
• Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. (Or combine ingredients in a mixer bowl and knead with the dough-hook attachment 8 to 10 minutes.) Tightly cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until soft and pliable, at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
• Cut dough into 4 portions. Keeping remaining portions covered with plastic, shape one into a rectangle. With a pasta roller on its largest setting (1 on a KitchenAid stand-mixer attachment), run dough through roller. Fold dough in half and run through largest setting again. Repeat once or twice more. Turn machine to next setting and pass through roller once.
• Continue passing dough through, lowering setting each time, until dough has run through the smallest setting (8 on KitchenAid attachment). Transfer to a tray generously dusted with semolina (or all-purpose) flour; dust top with more. Repeat process with remaining portions of dough.
• Attach a tagliatelle/fettuccine cutter to a pasta machine. Roll each sheet through cutter. Hang in a single layer on a pasta rack or transfer to a tray dusted with semolina and let dry, 30 minutes. (Pasta can be made up to 1 day ahead: Once dry, loosely twirl handfuls of pasta into 6 "nests," generously dust with more semolina, and refrigerate in a single layer in an airtight container.)
• Porcini Butter Sauce: Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium. Add oil, butter, and garlic. When butter melts and garlic sizzles, add mushrooms; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Add pepper flakes and cook 30 seconds more.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of generously salted boiling water until al dente,2 to 3 minutes. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain. Add 2/3 cup pasta water to skillet with mushrooms. Bring to a simmer. Add tagliatelle, tossing until sauce thickens slightly and evenly coats pasta, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
• Add parsley and half of cheese, tossing to combine. Add more pasta water as needed, a little at a time, until sauce evenly clings to pasta again. Serve topped with remaining cheese, pepper flakes, and a drizzle of oil.
