Pasta With Mushrooms Sage And Rosemary Recipes

Steps:

• Follow the Pasta with Tender Vegetables recipe, adding rosemary to the Sauteed mushrooms and parsley when tossing the pasta.

Steps:

• Begin heating a large pot fill with water for the pasta.
• In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil.
• Add in the onion; stir/saute for 5 minutes until tender.
• Add in the mushrooms and a generous pinch of salt; cook, stirring, for 3 minutes until the mushrooms begins to release their juices.
• Add in the garlic; continue to stir/saute until the liquid has evaporated.
• Add in the sage, rosemary, and wine; cook and stir 5-10 minutes until the wine has evaporated and the mushrooms are glazed.
• Add in the tomatoes and their juices; bring to a simmer; cook and stir frequently for 10-20 minutes until the tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture smells fragrant; season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
• When the water reaches a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt and gradually add in the pasta.
• Stir to make sure the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Cook until al dente; moisten the mushroom topping with 2-4 tablespoons of the pasta cooking water; drain the pasta.
• Toss the pasta with the mushrooms and remaining 1 tablespoon oil (if desired) in the pan or in a warm pasta bowl.
• Sprinkle on the cheese and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; salt it. Cook pasta until it is tender, but not quite done.
• Meanwhile, place butter in a skillet or saucepan large enough to hold the cooked pasta; turn heat to medium, and add sage. Cook until butter turns nut-brown and sage shrivels, then turn heat to a minimum.
• When the pasta is just about done, scoop out a cup of the cooking water. Drain the pasta. Immediately add it to the butter-sage mixture, and raise heat to medium. Add 3/4 cup of the water, and stir; the mixture will be loose and a little soupy. Cook for about 30 seconds, or until some of the water is absorbed and the pasta is perfectly done.
• Stir in cheese; the sauce will become creamy. Thin it with a little more water if necessary. Season liberally with pepper and salt to taste, and serve immediately, passing more cheese at the table if you like.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Trim the mushrooms and cut into 1-inch pieces. Toss with the olive oil, the salt, a few grinds of pepper and the rosemary. Spread on a large baking sheet and roast, tossing once or twice, until golden brown and crisped around the edges, 15 to 18 minutes. Discard rosemary.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for at least a few minutes less than the package directs. (You want the pasta very al dente; it will finish softening in the sauce.) Drain well.
• Turn oven up to 500 degrees. In a large bowl, stir together the cream, ricotta, fontina, Parmesan, sage, pepper, garlic and a pinch of salt. Stir in the pasta and mushrooms. Arrange in a shallow 2-quart gratin dish or 9- by 13-inch pan. Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly and browned in spots, 10 to 15 minutes.
