    Title: Mushroom Ragu Pasta
    Categories: Mushrooms. , Wine, Herbs, Pasta
    Yield: 4 servings

    5 c Chicken stock
    1 c Heavy cream
    2 ts Dried porcini mushroom
    - powder; opt
    4 ts Fresh thyme leaves
    Salt
    1/3 c Olive oil
    1 1/2 lb Mixed fresh mushrooms; fine
    - chopped in 1/4" pieces
    3 Shallots; fine chopped
    4 cl Garlic; fine chopped
    Black pepper
    1/3 c Port or marsala wine
    1 lb Spaghettini or angel hair
    - pasta

    Add the stock, heavy cream, porcini mushroom powder (if
    using), 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves and 2 teaspoons
    salt to a large pot. Bring to a boil over high.

    While the liquid comes to a boil, heat the oil over
    medium-high in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet. Add
    the mushrooms, shallots, garlic and 2 teaspoons thyme
    leaves. Season generously with salt and pepper, and
    cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and
    tender, about 12 minutes. Add the port, and stir until
    the alcohol cooks off and the mixture is almost dry,
    about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, set aside and
    cover to keep warm.

    Add the pasta to the boiling cream mixture, reduce the
    heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently with tongs,
    until the pasta is al dente and absorbs most of the
    liquid, and the sauce is silky, 6 to 7 minutes. (Stir
    constantly during the last couple minutes to ensure the
    pasta cooks evenly. Add a splash of water if needed to
    keep the mixture glossy.) Season to taste with salt and
    pepper.

    Transfer the pasta to bowls, top with the mushroom
    mixture and the remaining 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, and
    serve immediately.
