PASTA WITH PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS
The key to giving a portobello (or any mushroom) dense texture is to cook it slowly in oil so that most of its moisture is driven out. My biggest successes came in taking whole mushrooms and cooking them, covered, for as long as two hours. Nearly as good, however, and more than twice as fast, is to cut up the mushrooms and cook them in oil, uncovered, for 30 to 45 minutes. At that point, you not only have fabulous mushrooms, which you can use in a pasta sauce, as I do here, or to top salads or stir into rice dishes, but you also have very good-flavored oil. To further improve the mushrooms' flavor, I like to use the trick popularized by Marcella Hazan: add a few reconstituted dried porcini to the portobellos.

Steps:
- Trim hard parts from mushrooms and discard. Rinse mushrooms quickly to remove grit; cut caps into slices and stems into small chunks. Combine in a medium skillet with 1 clove garlic (crushed and peeled), thyme, olive oil and some salt and pepper. Cook over sufficiently low heat so that mixture bubbles but mushrooms do not brown. Continue to cook, stirring infrequently, until they are quite shrunken in size and appear firm, 30 to 45 minutes. (At this point, you can pause for several hours before resuming cooking.) If you are using porcinis, soak them in hot water to cover for a few minutes so that they soften.
- Set a large pot of water to boil for pasta and salt it. Mince remaining garlic. Turn heat under oil to medium, and add garlic to the portobellos along with the drained porcinis. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic begins to color. Add tomatoes and raise heat to medium high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they break up and become saucy, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook pasta until it is tender but not mushy. Taste sauce and adjust its seasoning. When pasta is done, drain it, toss with sauce, top with Parmesan, and serve.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Season the mushrooms generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out their flavor.
- Cook the mushrooms until they are tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. You don't want them to become mushy.
- Use a good quality white wine for the sauce. This will add a lot of flavor to the dish.
- Don't boil the sauce. Bring it to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. This will help to prevent the alcohol from cooking off.
- Add the cream to the sauce at the end of cooking. This will help to prevent it from curdling.
- Serve the pasta immediately with grated Parmesan cheese on top.
Conclusion:
Linguine with portobello mushrooms is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The mushrooms are packed with flavor and the sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
