Steps:
- Add the porcini mushrooms to a small bowl and cover them with boiling water. Leave aside.
- Boil the pasta in salted water until it reaches an almost al dente stage. Reserve 1 cup of water (about 200 ml) before draining.
- In a frying pan, melt the butter, and add the chopped shiitake mushrooms. Cook for 4-5 minutes until they are tender and lightly browned.
- In the meantime, drain the porcini mushrooms, chop them coarsely, and add to the pan. Cook for 1 more minute.
- Add the double cream and continue to stir until it evaporates, about 2 minutes, taking care to scrape the bits on the bottom regularly.
- Add the mascarpone and half of the pasta water. Cook until the sauce is creamy. Add more water if needed, but keep in mind the sauce should be creamy, not watery.
- Add the drained pasta and toss it over moderate heat, until it's cooked through (about 2-3 minutes). Add more pasta water if needed.
- Serve immediately.

LINGUINE WITH LEMON, GARLIC AND THYME MUSHROOMS
This is one of my proudest creations, and I suppose a good example of a recipe that isn't traditionally from Italy, but sits uncontroversially in her culinary canon. I don't think it would be too presumptuous to name this linguine ai funghi crudi. It is about as speedy as you can imagine: you do no more to the mushrooms than slice them, steep them in oil, garlic, lemon and thyme and toss them into the hot cooked pasta. I'm afraid, I had to have this forcibly taken away from me during the photographic shoot of this book, otherwise I'd have eaten it all up before it had even had its picture taken. The dressed mushrooms also make a great salad, but in which case boost the quantities of sliced mushrooms (keeping other ingredients the same, and obviously you're omitting the pasta altogether) to 375g/6 cups. If all you can find is regular button mushrooms, this pasta is still worth making - so no excuse for not.

Steps:
- Soak the dried mushrooms in very hot water until soft, anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes. When they are tender, remove the dried mushrooms from the soaking liquid with a slotted spoon, reserving the liquid; slice or chop if the pieces are large.
- Set a large pot of water to boil for the pasta and salt it. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat, and add the olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter. When it is hot, add the garlic and onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the fresh mushrooms and dried mushrooms when they're ready, and cook until they give up their liquid and start to brown, at least 15 minutes. Add the white wine or mushroom-soaking liquid to the pot and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom as the liquid starts to bubble.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta until tender.
- Reduce skillet heat to low. Add remaining butter and the parsley, and stir to combine; sprinkle with salt and pepper. When the pasta is done, drain it. Add the pasta to the mushroom mixture, and toss until well combined. If the mixture is dry, add a little pasta water or mushroom-soaking liquid. If you like, garnish with Parmesan and more parsley.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The fresher and more flavorful your ingredients are, the better your linguini ai funghi will be. Look for fresh mushrooms, flavorful olive oil, and a good quality dry white wine.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the mushrooms, don't crowd them in the pan. This will prevent them from getting properly browned and will make them more likely to release their water, which will make the sauce watery.
- Cook the mushrooms until they are browned: Don't rush the cooking process. Cook the mushrooms until they are nicely browned and have released their juices.
- Use a good quality dry white wine: The wine you use in the sauce should be one that you would drink yourself. A dry white wine with a crisp acidity will work best.
- Finish the sauce with butter: Adding a little bit of butter at the end of cooking will help to add richness and flavor to the sauce.
- Serve immediately: Linguini ai funghi is best served immediately. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become mushy if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Linguini ai funghi is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its combination of rich, flavorful sauce and tender pasta, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next dinner party. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give linguini ai funghi a try. You won't be disappointed!
