Porcini Noodles In The Style Of Stroganoff Recipes

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.

BEEF STROGANOFF WITH CREMINI & PORCINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Combine the beef broth and dried porcini in a small saucepan.
• Bring to a boil, remove from heat, cover, and let steep for 30 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon, lift the porcini out of the broth, chop coarsely and set aside.
• Strain the broth through a sieve and set aside.
• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil and the butter in a large skillet (not a non-stick) over medium high heat.
• When the oil is hot, add the cremini mushrooms and saute, stirring often until they are browned, 5- 6 minutes.
• Transfer to a bowl.
• Season the beef strips generously with kosher salt and pepper and dredge in the flour.
• Add 2 tbsp oil to the pan and heat over medium-high heat.
• When oil is hot, add the beef, spreading it in a single layer.
• After about a minute, turn each piece to brown the other side.
• Don't overcook!
• Work quickly, the whole process only takes a couple of minutes.
• Remove beef to the same bowl with the cremini.
• (Work in smaller batches, if you prefer).
• Melt the remaining 3 tbsp butter in the pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the onion.
• Saute, scraping up the browned meat bits at the bottom of the pan.
• When the onions just start to brown (about 4- 5 min), pour in the reserved porcini soaking broth.
• Stir in the mustard, Worcestershire sauce, porcini, cremini and beef, along with any accumulated juices.
• Bring to a simmer while stirring.
• Cook just until the sauce thickens slightly, 1- 2 minutes.
