How to Make Penne Al Funghi Porcini Pierce Brosnan's Fave
- Rehydrate dried porcini mushrooms in 1 cup boiling water for at least 20 minutes. Reserve the soaking liquid.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté minced garlic and chopped parsley for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the rehydrated porcini mushrooms (reserve the soaking liquid) and sauté for 5 minutes until tender.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the white wine to the skillet and simmer for 5-8 minutes, or until the wine has reduced by half.
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes and simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Add 1/4 cup of the reserved porcini soaking liquid for extra flavor.
- Meanwhile, cook penne pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining.
- Add the drained pasta to the sauce along with the grated Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a little pasta water until desired consistency is reached.
- Cook for 2 minutes over low heat, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
