BROCCOLI FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
This versatile side dish is a variation of a recipe I've had for years. Instead of broccoli, you can use green beans, carrots or your family's favorite vegetable. You can even add cubed cooked chicken and turn it into a main dish.-Robin Stevens, Cadiz, Kentucky

FETTUCCINE WITH BRAISED MUSHROOMS AND BABY BROCCOLI
I buy baby broccoli at my local Trader Joe's. The stalks are thin, like broccoli raab's, and the flowers are delicate. If you really want an intense mushroom experience, seek out the fabulous mushroom fettuccine made by Al Dente Pasta. You can find it in gourmet markets, in catalogues such as Zingerman's, and online.

Steps:
- Place the dried mushrooms in a Pyrex measuring cup and pour on 2 cups boiling water. Let soak 30 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. Place a strainer over a bowl; line it with cheesecloth, a coffee filter or paper towels; and drain the mushrooms. Squeeze the mushrooms over the strainer to extract all the flavorful juices, and measure out 1 1/2 cups of the broth. Rinse the mushrooms, away from the bowl with the broth, until they are free of sand. Squeeze dry and set aside. If very large, chop coarsely.
- Begin heating a large pot of water for the pasta. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet or saucepan over medium heat, and add the shallot. Cook, stirring for a few minutes, until tender, and add the fresh mushrooms and salt to taste. Cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms begin to soften and to sweat, about five minutes. Add the garlic, and continue to cook the mushrooms, stirring often, until they have softened a little more, about two minutes. Add the reconstituted dried mushrooms, the wine and rosemary (or thyme), and turn the heat to high. Cook, stirring often, until the wine evaporates and the pan is almost dry, five to 10 minutes. Stir in the mushroom broth. Bring to a simmer, and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the mushrooms are thoroughly tender and fragrant and the surrounding broth is thick and gravy-like, about 20 minutes. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Remove from the heat, and keep warm.
- When the pasta water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the baby broccoli. Blanch for five minutes, until tender but still bright. With a slotted spoon or skimmer, transfer to the pan with the mushrooms.
- Add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook al dente, until firm to the bite, following the directions on the package but checking a minute or two before the end of the designated cooking time. (Note that some egg noodles, such as Al Dente Pasta, take only three to four minutes). Add a ladleful of pasta cooking water to the mushrooms and baby broccoli, drain the pasta, and toss with the mushrooms and broccoli in a large pasta bowl or in the pan. Serve at once, passing Parmesan at the table.

PASTA WITH MUSHROOMS AND BROCCOLI
Broccoli stems and flowers can be prepared and cooked separately, like two different vegetables. For this pasta I used a vegetable peeler to shred the broccoli stems into thin ribbons, which I cooked briefly with the mushrooms. I sliced the crowns very thin and blanched them briefly with the pasta. The result is a dish with different textures and shades of green: the stems should be crisp-tender, their color faded. The crowns will be bright green, and 2 to 2 1/2 minutes cooking will render them tender but not mushy.

Steps:
- Cut broccoli stalks away from crowns and peel stalks. Use a vegetable peeler to shave stalks into thin ribbons. Set aside. Cut crowns into thin slices (about 1/4 inch). Combine with the little flower buds that fall off onto your cutting surface in a bowl.
- Begin heating a large pot of water for the pasta. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until lightly colored and beginning to sweat, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, add salt to taste, another tablespoon of oil, and shaved broccoli stems. Continue to sauté until the broccoli stem ribbons are crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and thyme, season to taste with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until garlic smells fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Remove from heat.
- When water in the pasta pot comes to a boil, add salt to taste and spaghetti. Set timer for 2 minutes less than the cooking time suggested on the package. When it goes off, add thinly sliced broccoli crowns and flower buds, and cook 2 minutes more, or until the pasta is al dente. Using a ladle, transfer 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water to the pan with the mushrooms and shaved broccoli stems. Drain the pasta and broccoli and toss with the mushroom and stem mixture, either in a large bowl or right in the pan. Serve with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat. Salt the water, add the pasta and cook to al dente. Heads up: Remove and reserve 1 cup of cooking water just before draining.
- Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until deeply browned and tender, 12 to 15 minutes, adding the garlic, thyme, and sage midway through the cooking. Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper, to taste, and a little freshly grated nutmeg. Deglaze the pan with the Marsala and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in the cream, (or if you prefer, top the pasta with a dollop of ricotta at serving time). Stir in the reserved pasta cooking water, about 1 cup if using ricotta, and just enough to thin out the sauce to your liking if using cream.
- Drain the pasta and toss with sauce, parsley, and cheese. Transfer the pasta to a serving bowls and top each with a dollop of ricotta, if using, for mixing into the fettuccine as you eat.
GLUTEN-FREE SPAGHETTI WITH BABY BROCCOLI, MUSHROOMS AND WALNUTS
This week I was really into adding nuts to many of my pasta dishes. They contribute substantial "meaty" texture and wonderful flavor. Baby broccoli is more elegant than regular broccoli, with long wispy florets and thin stems.

Steps:
- Begin heating a large pot of water. Trim the very bottoms away from baby broccoli and slice stalks. Keep sliced stalks and florets separate. Fill a bowl with cold water.
- When the water comes to a boil add salt to taste, drop in broccoli stalks and set the timer for 4 minutes. After 2 minutes add florets and blanch for 2 minutes. Using a Chinese skimmer, a strainer or a slotted spoon, transfer all of the baby broccoli to the cold water, then drain. Set aside in a bowl.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet or a wide, heavy saucepan and add mushrooms. Don't stir for 30 seconds to a minute so that mushrooms sear, then stir and cook, stirring often, until they have begun to soften and sweat, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, until garlic is fragrant, and add thyme, walnuts and salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook until mushrooms are tender, fragrant and juicy, another 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in broccoli and parsley, add salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring, for another minute. Remove from heat, taste and adjust seasoning. Keep warm.
- Bring water in pot back to a boil and add pasta. Cook al dente, using timing instructions on the package as a guide but checking pasta a minute before the time indicated is up. When pasta is ready, use a ladle to transfer 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water to pan with the broccoli and mushrooms. Drain pasta and toss at once with broccoli and mushroom mixture and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Serve hot, passing Parmesan at the table.
SPAGHETTI WITH BROCCOLI AND MUSHROOMS
This spaghetti dish is very easy to prepare and you can also substitute other types of pasta for a change. I have also used half broccoli and half spinach for a nice change. Crusty French bread and a garden salad make this a delicious meal.

QUICK FETTUCCINE AND BROCCOLI ALFREDO
This is a go-to dinner in my house. You can have the entire family eating within 30 minutes, and it's fun to get the kids involved in the cooking. You can switch out the pasta for another long cut like linguine, bucatini or angel hair. And you can sub cauliflower florets or baby carrots for broccoli; just be sure to adjust the steaming time.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook according to package directions until al dente, 8 to 11 minutes. While the pasta cooks, place a steamer basket over the pot and place the broccoli in the basket. Cover and steam until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large saucepan or skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Grate the half clove of garlic with a rasp grater into the butter and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Stir in the cream, milk, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer. Stir in the Romano and Parmesan, stirring until melted; the sauce will thicken. Turn off the heat and set aside until the pasta is done.
- Drain the pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup of cooking liquid. Add the drained pasta to the cream sauce and stir until well coated. If the sauce seems too thick, stir in some of the reserved pasta cooking liquid to thin it until it coats the pasta well. Fold in the broccoli. Garnish with parsley and more Parmesan.
Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your dish a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the mushrooms. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Cook the mushrooms until they are browned and tender. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- Use a good quality white wine. This will add flavor to the dish without overpowering the other ingredients.
- Let the sauce simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the dish hot, garnished with fresh herbs.
Conclusion:
Fettuccine with Braised Mushrooms and Baby Broccoli is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The mushrooms are braised in a flavorful sauce made with white wine, chicken broth, and herbs. The baby broccoli adds a pop of color and freshness to the dish. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
