Paternity Leave Pantry: Pasta with Mushrooms, Radicchio and On-Purpose Shallots and Garlic

"Recipe"

a pat of butter
a glug of olive oil
A couple shallots, chopped
a couple garlic cloves, chopped
some fresh rosemary and oregano
a few mushrooms, chopped
a head of radicchio, chopped
a splash of sherry vinegar
8 ounces of dried pasta
salt and pepper
pecorino to finish

Heat a pan with oil and butter. Add the shallots and garlic. Go get herbs and forget about the onions and garlic and burn them a little but totally on purpose.

Add the herbs and salt and pepper and then the mushrooms and radicchio. Let them get nice and soft while you boil pasta. Deglaze with vinegar. Add the drained pasta and some of the pasta water.

Keep it all rolling until it's glossy and unified.

Season to taste, then serve with pecorino and a little more olive oil.

mindblown by the smashed mushrooms and excited to try that "technique"

In literally 50+ years of watching cooking shows (I was a weird child who loved the Galloping Gourmet) I have never see anyone smash mushrooms, and it is GENIUS. I will absolutely be doing that in the future!

My favorite meals are the "lets see what we have in the house" meals.

Noah, you are a superb chef. Your version of pasta primavera is a staple in our home, and now mushroom smashing will be too. Thank you for your deliciously dope demos! ❤
Please never leave Noah alone with cameras. I'm still recovering from vertigo after this episode of Blair Witch. 😂

The "I love you" at the end was adorable. Anyway, that pasta looked dank.

Mazel Tov! I just saw the People Magazine story announcing the birth! Love the name!

Totally making this...but also prepping herbs B4 and watching my shallots & garlic like a neighbor with too much time on their hands. 🍳

[makaelabeeber]

Looks delicious! Also, I'd be the only one in my home to eat it as my husband doesn't like radicchio and my toddler has a very specific...toddler diet.... 😂 might make it out of spite 😂 thank you for keeping up with the effort and congrats on the the new addition!

Noah, you're so funny & also, where can I get this pasta strainer?

Ben is the name of my imaginary camera man as well. My Ben has been microdosing.

Love you too Noah? Didn't want you to worry you made it weird
