PORCINI NOODLES IN THE STYLE OF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• For the porcini pasta: Combine the all-purpose flour, semolina and porcini powder in a mixing bowl. Add the eggs. Knead the dough, wrap it in plastic and let it rest at least 30 minutes.
• Roll the dough out with a pasta machine to desired thickness. Cut to desired noodle shape. (You will have enough pasta for about 12 servings; freeze half for another time.)
• Cook half of the pasta in salted boiling water until cooked through, reserving a little of the pasta cooking water.
• For the sauce: Meanwhile, cook the mushrooms, stirring, in oil until browned. Add the shallot and cook until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the madeira and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the creme fraiche. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Add the noodles to the sauce and toss; add a little pasta cooking water if necessary to get the sauce to coat the noodles. Toss again with the arugula. Transfer the noodles to plates and garnish with dollops of goat cheese. Drizzle with olive oil.

TAGLIATELLE WITH PORCINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Put water on to boil for the pasta. Add salt once it starts to boil.

• 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 PESTO

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir mushrooms and shallot in melted butter until the mushrooms are lightly browned and soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.

• Lay the lasagna sheets out on a cutting board and cut into long strips about 1 1/2 centimeters (3/4-inch) wide.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of a small food processor or a mortar and pestle, combine the basil, tarragon, Pecorino, walnuts and garlic and blitz to finely chop. Add the olive oil and season with salt and pepper and continue to blitz until well combined but still a bit textured.
• Heat the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat and add in the shallot. Season with salt and pepper and cook until tender and just slightly golden, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, remove the porcini mushrooms from their liquid and reserve both. Gently squeeze the mushrooms to remove excess water and roughly chop. Add to the pan and continue to cook on medium heat until the mushrooms are lightly golden, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the white wine and cook for 2 minutes, or until most of the wine has been absorbed. Pour 1/2 cup of the porcini steeping liquid into the pan, being careful to leave any grit that may have settled at the bottom of the liquid behind and discard the rest. Simmer until the liquid has reduced by about half.
• Place a large pot of water over high heat, season well with salt and bring to a boil. Cook the pasta for 2 to 3 minutes, or just until al dente.

Add a few tablespoons of the pasta cooking liquid to bring everything together and turn the heat down to low and allow the pasta to keep warm while you make the crunchy topping.
• For the topping: Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the panko and cook, stirring constantly, until golden and crisp, about 1 minute. Transfer the panko to a small bowl and allow it to cool slightly before tossing in the Pecorino, lemon zest and herbs. Then season to taste with salt and pepper.
