Pappardelle con salsiccia e porcini
Pappardelle with Sausage and Porcini
Serves 2
Ingredients
- 250 g fresh pappardelle
- 200 g fresh Italian sausage, casings removed
-
200 g fresh porcini, sliced
(or any seasonal mushrooms + soaked dried porcini; frozen porcini work too) - 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Parsley, chopped
- Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
- Salt & black pepper

Method
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Heat a little olive oil in a wide pan over medium-high. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
Add porcini and cook until softened and lightly browned. Add sausage and cook, breaking it up, until browned. Pour in wine and cook until mostly reduced.
Cook pappardelle until al dente. Reserve some pasta water, then drain.
Add pasta to the pan and toss, adding splashes of pasta water until the sauce coats and clings. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in parsley.
Serve with grated Parmigiano and a glass of Abbazia di Novacella's Pinot Nero.

Buon appetito!
