Porcini-Parsley Pasta (Rachael Ray)
- salt and pepper
- 1 lb pappardelle pasta (may sub fettuccine)
- one 32-ounce container vegetable stock (4 cups)
- 1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 large shallots, chopped
- 1 cup packed flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 wedge pecorino romano cheese, for grating at the table
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt it, add the pasta and cook until al dente.
- Drain.
- While the pasta is working, in a saucepan, simmer the vegetable stock and porcinis until the porcinis are softened, 15 minutes.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the shallots; season with salt and pepper.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Stir in the parsley, then the wine.
- Lower the heat to low.
- Remove the mushrooms from the stock and finely chop; add to the parsley-shallot mixture.
- Ladle in the stock up to the last ladleful (to avoid the grit at the bottom).
- Toss the pasta with the porcini-parsley sauce and serve with a little grated pecorino romano on top.
