CREAMY SHIITAKE LINGUINE WITH SCALLIONS/ GREEN ONIONS

Steps:

• Cook linguine pasta according to package directions to al dente; drain, reserving some of the pasta water and return to pan to keep warm.
• In a large frying pan, saute mushrooms in butter until they begin to soften.
• Add minced garlic and shallots; sauté an additional 2 minutes.
• Add white wine and simmer until wine is reduced by half.
• Add 1/4 cup of chicken broth, heavy cream, and nutmeg; simmer until sauce thickens.
• Remove from heat; add scallions, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
• Add drained pasta to sauce; tossing gently to coat the pasta. Add more chicken broth or pasta water if sauce seems too thick. If sauce is still thin, add some (Wondra) flour. (Avoid using parmesan to thicken, as I've found that it interferes with all of the other flavors).
• Place pasta on individual plates by using a long-tined fork, twisting each portion onto a heated plate so that it stands up as high as possible.
• Spoon any mushrooms left in the pan over the top, sprinkle with fresh thyme and drizzle white truffle oil over the top and serve.

SPICY GLASS NOODLES WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Place the noodles in a large bowl, cover with room-temperature water and soak until pliable, about 30 minutes. Drain. Place dried shiitakes in a medium bowl, cover with room-temperature water and soak until hydrated and soft, about 30 minutes. Drain the mushrooms, remove their stems, and julienne the caps.
• While the noodles and mushrooms soak, heat the grapeseed oil in a large lidded skillet over medium-high, uncovered. Stir-fry the garlic, ginger and scallion until light golden, about 1 minute. Add the shiitakes and continue to stir-fry until golden, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the cabbage and curry powder, then 3 tablespoons soy sauce. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until the cabbage is wilted and has given up its natural juices, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the drained noodles and remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Increase heat to high, and stir-fry until noodles absorb the juices and are cooked through yet still chewy, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle with sesame oil, toss well, sprinkle with cilantro and serve immediately.
