Tagliatelle con Salsiccia (Tagliatelle with Sausage) Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 5 ounces fresh porcini mushrooms
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1 pinch dried parsley
  • 1 1/2 ounces ground Italian sausage
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 3/4 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 (12 ounce) package tagliatelle pasta
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped toasted almonds, or to taste
  1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add porcini mushrooms, onion, garlic, and parsley; cook and stir until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Add sausage; cook and stir until browned, about 2 minutes.
  2. Pour white wine into the skillet and simmer, scraping up the browned bits off the bottom of the skillet, until most of the wine evaporates, about 3 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth; cook and stir until sauce reduces, about 5 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
  3. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in tagliatelle, bring back to a boil, and cook until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
  4. Drain tagliatelle and stir into the sauce in the skillet. Stir in Parmigiano cheese. Divide tagliatelle among 4 serving plates and garnish with toasted almonds.
