Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound rigatoni
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound assorted mushrooms, stemmed, sliced into 1/3-inch pieces
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk
2 1/2 cups grated Parmesan
2 cups grated Gruyere
2 cups chopped Tuscan kale (3 to 4 leaves)
1 cup grated Gruyere
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup smoked almonds, chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons lemon zest (2 lemons)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • For the pasta: Cook the rigatoni in a large pot of generously salted boiling water until al dente, about 3 minutes less than the package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large Dutch oven. Sear the mushrooms, undisturbed, for 3 minutes; stir, and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Sear on the reverse side an additional 2 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the pan.
  • Lower the heat to medium and melt the butter in the Dutch oven. Add the garlic and flour, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and simmer gently until the sauce just thickens, 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the Parmesan, Gruyere and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Let cool slightly, then add half of the seared mushrooms, and puree with an immersion blender.
  • In a large bowl, toss the pasta with the sauce and the remaining half of the mushrooms, adding about 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water or more if desired. Transfer to a baking dish.
  • For the gremolata: In a medium bowl, combine the kale, Gruyere, panko, smoked almonds, olive oil and lemon zest.
  • Scatter the gremolata over the pasta and bake until golden on top and bubbling, about 40 minutes.

RIGATONI WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM SAUCE



Rigatoni with Creamy Mushroom Sauce image

This dish hails from northern Italy, where the climate is mushroom-happy and cream sauces are the norm. In lean times, frugal Italian cooks often substituted mushrooms for meat in dishes like this one because their meaty texture and earthy flavor give the sauce real substance. I often make this as a veggie option for parties, and even the carnivores go for it.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound rigatoni pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 shallots, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound assorted mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, or button), cleaned and sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 cup (8 ounces) mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn the heat to high. Add the wine and cook for 3 minutes, or until all the liquid evaporates. Add the broth and simmer until the liquid is slightly reduced.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Add the mascarpone cheese and stir until creamy. Drain the pasta, reserving about 1 cup of the pasta water, and transfer to a serving bowl. Add the mushroom mixture and the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper and toss well to coat the pasta, adding the reserved pasta water, if needed, to loosen the pasta. Garnish with the chopped chives.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your sauce a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms until they are browned. This will help to develop their flavor and give them a slightly chewy texture.
  • Use a good quality white wine. A dry white wine will help to brighten the flavor of the sauce. Avoid using a sweet wine, as it will make the sauce too heavy.
  • Don't overcook the sauce. The sauce should be thick and creamy, but not too thick. If you overcook it, it will become too thick and gluey.
  • Serve the sauce with your favorite pasta. Rigatoni is a good choice, but you can also use penne, macaroni, or any other type of pasta that you like.

Conclusion:

This creamy mushroom sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used with a variety of different pastas. It is also a great way to use up leftover mushrooms. Whether you are a beginner cook or a seasoned pro, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this creamy mushroom sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
