For cooking creamy pasta with mushrooms they use both fresh and dried mushrooms, or shitake mushrooms. Dried mushrooms should be pre-soaked in hot water for several hours, and then stewed or fried. Choose the pasta according to your taste - pasta with horns, bows or shells is especially well suited: it absorbs the sauce well.
The pasta is not boiled until it is completely cooked, but to the state of "al dente" - when it is not yet completely boiled. Such a paste on the outside remains a little elastic, but inside it is already ready. The paste absorbs the sauce and becomes soft.

Italian cuisine is considered the most popular in the world. And this title goes to her well deserved. Having tasted real pizza, pasta, lasagna or risotto once, these dishes will forever remain in your heart. Italians are true masters of their craft. The variety of tastes and options delights both gourmets and the inexperienced. Pasta with porcini mushrooms in a creamy sauce is no exception.
Porcini mushrooms are called royal mushrooms for a reason. While growing up, they absorbed all the aromas of the surrounding forest, stocked up with vitamins and minerals from the soil, so that later they could give everything honestly and without a trace to the “hunter”. I don't know much about mushrooms. I can only identify the fly agaric by its red hat with white dots. But I know perfectly well how delicious porcini mushrooms can be in dishes. For this I love them immensely.
Of course, it is much easier to take champignons. They are sold everywhere and are not tied to the season. Less fuss with them. But it is not at all interesting, and they will confuse porcini mushrooms on all fronts. Champignon can boast of neither the tenderness of white, nor its unsurpassed aroma, nor rich taste. That is why porcini mushrooms in a creamy sauce become the hero of today's pasta. Moreover, these products are combined perfectly.
I have cooked mushroom pasta in a creamy sauce many times. I tried many options for combining different spices and types of Italian pasta. This recipe is one of the new, but already well-developed. With it you will plunge into the atmosphere of an autumn forest. Soft green moss, covered with multi-colored leaves and pine needles, towering giant trees, rounded mushroom caps peeking out of the shadow of the mighty trunks immediately appear before the eyes. This dish is very rich in flavors and aromas. It is worth every minute you spend in the kitchen.
Porcini mushrooms can be taken both fresh and frozen. I tried both options and was satisfied. If you, like me, do not understand mushrooms at all, then just buy a pack of frozen ones in any supermarket. It's calmer this way. They have to be defrosted, thoroughly washed and boiled.
For herbs and spices, I ultimately settled on a mixture of peppers for a little pungency and fresh thyme. The latter in the most incredible way weaves its bright herbal aroma with mushroom. I recommend fresh thyme leaves. But if getting them is problematic, use dried ones.
And, of course, one of the most important places in the process of preparing our pasta with porcini mushrooms in a creamy sauce is the sauce itself. Combine a couple of boiled mushrooms with two tablespoons of broth in a blender and puree until smooth, then add to the cream. The intensity of taste in such a way increases many times. Soaked in such a sauce, the pasta reaches the very level of perfection that we expect from it. Are you ready to start the recipe?
