Pasta with Creamy Mushroom-Pea Sauce image

Peas combine deliciously with wild mushrooms, such as chanterelles, but they are hard to come by this early in the season. You can still get the depth of flavor from more available creminis.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces whole-wheat pasta, such as fusilli or rotini
3 cups shelled English peas, (4 1/2 pounds unshelled) or frozen peas
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms*
2 cups hot water
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound fresh crimini mushrooms, chopped
1/2 pound fresh portobello mushrooms, stemmed, dark gills scraped off, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf
1/3 cup dry Marsala
1 pound fusilli pasta
1 cup beef stock or canned beef broth
1/4 cup whipping cream
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 3 ounces)
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
Additional grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Place porcini mushrooms in small bowl. Pour 2 cups hot water over. Let stand until mushrooms soften, about 25 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to work surface and coarsely chop. Discard soaking liquid.
  • Heat olive oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add porcini, crimini and portobello mushrooms, minced garlic and bay leaf. Sauté until mushrooms are brown and tender, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add Marsala and simmer until almost all liquid evaporates, scraping up browned bits, about 1 minute. Season mushroom mixture to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. (Mushroom mixture can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain well.
  • Mix beef stock and whipping cream into mushroom mixture and simmer 3 minutes. Add 1 cup Parmesan cheese, butter and drained pasta; toss to coat. Cook until sauce coats pasta, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve, passing additional grated Parmesan separately.
  • *Dried porcini mushrooms are available at Italian markets, specialty foods stores and many supermarkets.

Tips:

  • Use fresh mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh mushrooms, you can use dried mushrooms, but be sure to soak them in hot water for 30 minutes before using.
  • Sauté the mushrooms properly. Sautéing the mushrooms until they are golden brown will help develop their flavor.
  • Use a good quality cream. A good quality cream will make your sauce rich and creamy. Avoid using ultra-pasteurized cream, as it can have a chalky taste.
  • Season the sauce to taste. Be sure to season the sauce with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste.
  • Serve immediately. Fusilli with Wild Mushroom Cream Sauce is best served immediately, while the sauce is still hot and creamy.

Conclusion:

Fusilli with Wild Mushroom Cream Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make pasta dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sautéed mushrooms, creamy sauce, and tender fusilli pasta is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty pasta dish, give this recipe a try!
