Equipment

Ingredients

  • 8 oz linguine pasta I used chickpea pasta but regular will work too
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil or any neutral oil
  • 1 shallot finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove finely chopped
  • 8 oz container shiitake mushrooms washed and dried
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 1 lemon juiced (approx. 4 Tbsp)
  • ¾ cup milk of choice
  • ¼ cup Parmesan grated
  • 2 tablespoon black truffle oil plus more to garnish if desired
  • 2 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • cup reserved pasta water

Instructions

  • Heat a pot of water for the pasta on the stove over high heat.
    8 oz linguine pasta
  • While the water is heating up, add the olive oil to a skillet over medium-low heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer add the chopped shallots. Cook until the shallots become soft and translucent. Then add the garlic and shiitake mushrooms and cook until soft. Reduce the heat to low.
    2 tablespoon olive oil, 1 shallot, 1 garlic clove, 8 oz container shiitake mushrooms
  • After the pot of water begins to boil, prepare the pasta al dente according to directions.
  • While the pasta is cooking, add the white wine and lemon to the mushrooms and let them simmer until the liquid is reduced down by half half.
    1 lemon, ½ cup dry white wine
  • Add the milk and parmesan cheese to the skillet and stir gently to incorporate.
    ¾ cup milk of choice, ¼ cup Parmesan
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the truffle oil, salt, and pepper.
    2 tablespoon black truffle oil, 2 teaspoon sea salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Drain the pasta once cooked al dente and reserve ⅓ cup of the water. Add the noodles to the skillet and gently toss with the truffle sauce. Add the pasta water in little splashes, if needed, until you reach your desired consistency.
    ⅓ cup reserved pasta water
  • Serve warm with an extra drizzle of truffle oil and parmesan, if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

Storing : Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. When ready to enjoy, add a splash of warm water, and gently toss the noodles to loosen up the sauce.
