Shiitake Mushrooms And Chard Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium sized skillet, heat olive oil until shimmering. Add onion and cook at medium-low heat until translucent, about 5 or 6 minutes. Add garlic and cook until golden brown, about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and increase heat slightly. Cook until the mushrooms have thrown off their moisture and started to brown.
• Add tomatoes, chili flakes and oregano and cook until heated through. Add Swiss chard and cook until wilted, just a couple of minutes. Stir in gruyere cheese. Meanwhile, cook whatever pasta shape you desire, until al dente. Drain pasta and top with sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Make the pasta in boiling salted water, drain (reserve 2 cups of the pasta water if you're making the vegetarian version), drizzle with olive oil, season with sea salt and black pepper, toss and set aside.
• Sauté with olive oil or grill the sausages to put a crust on the outside, drain on a paper towel, cut into 1/4-inch rounds, then set aside. In a hot pan lightly brown the kale with the olive oil and remove. Add the shiitakes, shallots, and garlic, and sauté until lightly browned. Turn down the heat to medium. Return the kale to the pan along with the sausages, stock, and butter. Braise for 15 minutes. The liquid should reduce by half.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning with sea salt and pepper. Add the cooked pasta, toss to coat with the sauce. Serve with grated cheese.

Steps:

• Soak dried shiitake mushrooms in warm water for 20-30 minute to rehydrate. Squeeze out any excess water.
• Cook pasta according to package directions and set aside.
• In large pan heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, mushrooms and garlic.
• Reduce heat to medium and add butter, red pepper, Italian Seasoning, garlic, and basil. Cook about 1-2 minute to mix flavors.
• Add wine. Cook another 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
• Add milk and let simmer until liquid is almost evaporated.
• Mix pasta into "sauce" and add a bit more milk or butter if needed to evenly coat.
• Sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano and serve.
