How to make it

  • In a small bowl soak porcini in 3 cups boiling water 30 minutes.
  • Remove porcini, squeezing out excess liquid, and reserve soaking liquid.

  • In a large heavy skillet cook shallot, garlic, and fresh mushrooms with salt and pepper to taste in butter over moderate heat, stirring until mushrooms are tender. Add wine, stock, and porcini soaking liquid and boil until liquid is reduced by about half.
  • Cook pasta in boiling water until "al dente".
  • While pasta is cooking, add cream and porcini to wine mixture and boil sauce until thickkened, about 5 minutes. Drain pasta in a colander and transfer to a large bowl. Add sauce, Parmesan, and truffle oil and toss well. Season pasta wit salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve with a fresh, leafy green salad and a simple oil/vinegar/dijon mustard dressing and some good French Bread.
