Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1-ounce package dried shiitake mushrooms
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 tablespoon olive oil
6 bacon slices, minced
3 shallots, minced
4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms or button mushrooms, sliced
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1 cup beef stock or canned unsalted broth
1 1/4 cups half and half
8 ounces fettuccine
2/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 ounces)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Minced fresh Italian parsley
Additional freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Place dried mushrooms in medium bowl. Add hot water and let soak until softened, about 30 minutes. Remove mushrooms from water, squeezing excess water back into bowl. Strain and reserve soaking liquid. Slice mushrooms, discarding stems.
  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until fat renders, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Pour off half of fat. Add shallots to bacon in skillet and sauté 1 minute. Add dried and fresh mushrooms and rosemary and sauté 3 minutes. Add stock and mushroom-soaking liquid. Boil until liquid is reduced to glaze, about 10 minutes. Add half and half and simmer until beginning to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Add pasta to large pot of boiling salted water. Cook until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, rewarm mushroom sauce over medium-low heat.
  • Drain pasta. Add to sauce and stir until coated. Mix in 2/3 cup Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to plates. Sprinkle with parsley.

This dish was a disaster! The sauce was too thick and the mushrooms were rubbery. I will not be making this again.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out grainy. I think I might have overcooked the mushrooms.

The sauce was a bit bland for my taste, but it was still a good dish. I think I would add more garlic and herbs next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I would use less cream next time.

I'm not a big fan of fettuccine, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was so creamy and flavorful, and the mushrooms were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, but with a different type of pasta.

I've made this dish several times now and it's always a winner. The sauce is so versatile, I've even used it on chicken and fish. It's also a great way to use up leftover mushrooms.

This dish was easy to make and it tasted delicious! I used a mix of shiitake and oyster mushrooms, and they both worked well in the sauce. I also added a bit of chopped spinach to the sauce for extra flavor and nutrition.

This fettuccine with shiitake mushroom sauce was a delight! The sauce was rich and flavorful, with a perfect balance of umami and earthiness. The mushrooms were tender and meaty, and the fettuccine was cooked to al dente perfection. I will definitely
