Simo and Cicci’s Recommendations

You can store the penne alla boscaiola in the fridge for up to 2 days.

You can also make a white version of pasta alla boscaiola by simply omitting the tomato sauce.

You can use other types of pasta instead of penne, such as fusilli, farfalle, rigatoni, or even tagliatelle or tagliolini.

You can use the type of mushrooms you prefer, such as champignon, porcini, chanterelles, honey mushrooms, etc.

To make the sauce creamier, you can also add cooking cream. Additionally, many versions of penne alla boscaiola also include peas or black olives.

You can replace the sausage with the same amount of diced pancetta.
