Mushroom-Shaped Pasta with Herb Duxelles
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Sauté minced shallots and finely chopped mushrooms in a pan to create a duxelles mixture.
- 2Incorporate cubed cheese and fresh herbs into the mushroom duxelles to create a pliable filling.
- 3Mix mushroom powder into a portion of the pasta dough to color it brown, then roll out both plain and brown dough sheets using a pasta machine.
- 4Form the pasta stalks by rolling the plain pasta dough into cigars filled with duxelles, pinching one end closed.
- 5Create the mushroom tops using a ravioli mold lined with brown pasta sheets, filling them with duxelles and sealing to form little discs.
- 6Assemble the mushrooms by attaching the pasta stalks to the ravioli tops.
