Autumn, the season of mushrooms par excellence! So to start the season, I made a recipe for Pasta with Chanterelle Mushrooms and Cream. Just as simple as good.
To make this recipe, I used taglierini, straight from Italy where I spent my summer holidays. Taglierini are thin pasta that look like tagliatelle. They are typical of the Piemonte region in the northwest of Italy. It is also a region known for its chanterelles and the two go very well together.
If you don’t have taglierini, you can choose spaghetti or tagliatelle.
How to prepare chanterelles?
Chanterelles, also known as girolles, are small, umbrella-shaped mushrooms with an orange colour. One of the best ways to prepare them is to fry them in a pan with butter and eventually add some cream to make a sauce, as in this recipe.
Before sauté the chanterelles, it is important to clean them gently. They are often a bit dirty because it grows close to the ground. To clean them, cut off the tail end of the chanterelles. Then with a slightly dampened paper towel, clean the chanterelles. Do not put them under water, otherwise they will become waterlogged and lose their flavour.
The cooking the chanterelles takes only a few minutes (1 to 2 minutes in a frying pan is enough). Again, if you leave them on the stove too long, they will lose their flavor.
