Fettuccine With Shiitake Mushroom Sauce
Ingredients
1 oz Dried shiitake mushrooms

1 1/2 cup Hot water

1 tbsp On, olive oil

3 Shallots, minced

4 oz Shiitake mushrooms

1/2 tsp Dried rosemary, crumbled

1 cup Vegetable broth

1 1/4 cup Half and half

8 oz Fettucine

2 oz Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Minced flat leaf parsley

Preparation
Place dried mushrooms in medium bowl. Add hot water and let soak until softened, about 30 minutes. Remove mushrooms from water, squeezing excess water back into bowl. Strain and reserve soaking liquid. Slice mushrooms, discarding stems.



Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots to skillet and saute 1 minute. Add dried and fresh mushrooms and rosemary and saute 3 minutes. Add stock and mushroom-soaking liquid. Boil until liquid is reduced to a glaze, about 10 minutes. Add half-and-half and simmer until beginning to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)



Add pasta to large pot of boiling water and cook until al dente. Meanwhile, rewarm mushroom sauce over medium-low heat.



Drain pasta. Add to sauce and stir until coated. Mix in 2/3 cup Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to plates. Sprinkle with parsely. Serve immediately.
