Creamy Mushroom Pasta With Sausage



MushroomPasta4

As you may already suspect by now, I love pasta - it may even be safe to say that I enjoy all food Italian. I had concluded many years ago when I visited Rome twice in a short span of 3 months, that one has to be really unlucky to get bad food in Italy.
I look forward to July when I would be vacationing in Turino and Milan.

In the meantime, I am happy to whip up a quick and tasty pasta dish in my humble kitchen.

Originally a vegetarian recipe featuring just mushroom, I tried to perk it up with sausages.
The white wine cuts through the creaminess to keep the dish refreshingly light. I am now totally enamoured with cooking with cream and white wine. You can find this similar pairing in my last pasta dish, Spaghetti with Creamy Garlic Prawns which was equally delicious.

There is really nothing much more to say about this easy everyday concoction. I leave you with the photos and the recipe. Bon Appetite!

Hi, Pasta is my favorite!! Can you tell me what cream you use?

tigerfish said...

I am actually less of a cream-based pasta person. However, once in a while, there will be a craving lingering. :P

turino - one of the places I've been hoping to go in the near future! i too enjoy using white wine in creamy pastas, and coupled with some sparkling red wine - heaven on a plate :]

Hi Jocelyn : I just used normal whipping cream. (fresh cream)

Love creamy pasta like this!

I agree about Italy - can't beat it! The only place the food wasn't stellar - in my experience at least - was Venice. It was touristy and overpriced in a lot of places so you really had to look for the local gems.

This pasta dish look delicious thought - love the addition of sausage!

Memória said...

Is there a non-alcoholic substitute for the white wine? This dish looks incredible, but I don't consume alcohol (at least not knowingly).

Shirley @ Kokken69 said...

Hey Memoria, Yes, you definitely can substitute. I am guessing a chicken stock would be great!
