     Title: Isaac Mizrahi's Mushroom Truffle Spaghetti
Categories: Pasta, Vegetables, Mushrooms, Herbs, Dairy
     Yield: 12 servings

     3 tb Extra-virgin olive oil
     2 tb Unsalted butter
     1 lg Onion; in matchsticks
     4 cl Garlic; minced
     8 c  Mushrooms; cleaned, washed,
          - sliced
          Salt
     2 tb Fresh sage; minced, divided
 1 1/2 c  Chicken stock
     1 lb Spaghetti
 2 1/2 tb Truffle paste
   1/3 c  Cream
          Salt & fresh ground pepper

 Boil water with plenty of salt for the spaghetti.

 Over medium-high heat, in a large frying pan, heat oil
 and butter. Saut onion for 2-3 minutes, until opaque.
 Add minced garlic, and cook for about one minute,
 stirring constantly, being careful not to burn it. Mix
 in mushrooms. (It may seem like a lot in the pan, but
 the mushrooms will reduce eventually. Also if it seems
 like the oil and butter are absorbed too quickly by the
 mushrooms, dont worry, add another tablespoon or so of
 olive oil). Cook 3-5 minutes, adding a pinch of salt in
 the last stages.

 Add half of the sage, increase to high heat and add
 chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and
 simmer for 8 minutes.

 At this point, drop the spaghetti into the boiling water
 and cook for 8 minutes. Note: Do not cook it for the
 recommended 12 minutes, because it should be undercooked
 when it goes into the ragu.

 After the mushroom mixture has been simmering for 5
 minutes, add truffle paste and simmer for another
 minute. Add cream and simmer 2 minutes.

 Pull the pasta from the cooking water with tongs,
 placing it directly into the sauce. Add remaining sage,
 salt and pepper to taste and simmer for 2 more minutes.
 If the ragu seems dry, add some of the starchy pasta
 cooking water as needed. Serve immediately and garnish
 each bowl with freshly grated Pecorino Romano.

 Serves: 4 servings
