Edit
I don’t know if it’s a bad thing, but I am in comfort food mode and this herby buttered wild mushroom tagliatelle pasta is about as comforting as it gets.
Although, who am I trying to kid? Aren’t I always in comfort food mode? Even my salads are about as comforting as a salad could be. Sorry not sorry.
With fall creeping in I’m feeling like the comforting recipes are probably a good thing. Going with it…and trust me you’ll want to go with it too, because this pasta is rather life changing. Kind of a bold thing to say, but it’s totally true. Hello to slowly cooked wild mushrooms with butter and all my garden herbs. It’s summer meets fall and I’m loving it.
INGREDIENTS
- 3/4 pound tagliatelle or other long cut pasta
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pound mixed wild mushrooms
- kosher salt and pepper
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, smashed
- 1 cup fresh basil, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped sage
- 3/4 cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 8 ounces burrata cheese
- 1/4 cup shaved manchego cheese
INSTRUCTIONS
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook undisturbed for 5 minutes or until golden, stir and continue cooking until the mushrooms are caramelized, 3-5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter, garlic, half of the basil, the thyme, and sage. Cook, stirring occasionally until the garlic is caramelized and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Slowly add the wine and then the lemon juice and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir the pasta into the sauce and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-5 minutes until warmed through. Divide among bowls and break the burrata over top each bowl. Top with manchego and herbs for garnish. Serve immediately.
