The mushroom tagliatelle is an iconic dish of Italian cuisine, known for its simplicity and depth of flavors. The dish celebrates the fusion between the earth and the tradition of fresh pasta.
The tagliatelle is characterized by its delicate texture and ability to retain sauces well, thanks to their rough surface obtained from artisanal processing.
The mushrooms, which are the heart of the dish, bring with them the flavor of the undergrowth.
Their earthy, slightly musky flavor harmoniously marries with the delicacy of the tagliatelle, creating a balance between lightness and gustative intensity.
Going into the woods to search for these delicious “fruits” that nature offers us is a pastime I have always enjoyed. I love nature, so sea, mountains, countryside, open sky… are my life. I could never live in a city, big or small.
My fortune is precisely living a stone’s throw from the sea but also a few miles from the mountains.
Indeed, in no more than half an hour by car, I immerse myself in the green, in absolute peace, and among the scent of the plants and the chirping of the birds, I have fun collecting mushrooms and chestnuts.
The flavor and aroma of the mushroom make this dish truly unique and exquisite.
The tagliatelle is light as I use few eggs in the dough.

Tips and Notes
For an excellent result, it is essential to purchase fresh mushrooms. The freshness of the mushroom is noticeable, besides by the uniform and intact color, also by touch. The mushroom should be nice and firm, not soft.
The Ligurian porcini mushroom tagliatelle are best consumed immediately. Otherwise, they can be frozen, but separately. The tagliatelle are frozen raw, while the mushrooms are already cooked.

FAQ (Questions and Answers)
Can I also add cooking cream?
Yes, certainly. This way they will remain creamier, but the mushroom flavor will be less noticeable.
