ingredients

  • 1 pound rigatoni pasta
  • 1 1/2 ounces dried porcini mushrooms
  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
  • 4 portobello mushroom caps
  • 1/2 pound shiitake mushrooms, stem and sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1/2 cup dry Italian red wine
  • 2-3 stems rosemary, stripped and finely chopped, (a couple of tablespoons)
  • Black pepper
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes (28 ounces)
  • Hunk Pecorino Romano, for grating
  • Crusty bread, for mopping

directions

  • 1

    Heat a grill pan to high or George Foreman

  • 2

    Place a large pot of water on the stove to boil. Add salt and cook rigatoni to al dente.

  • 3

    Place porcini in a small pot with about 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, drop to simmer, and reduce liquid by half, 10 minutes.

  • 4

    While pasta and porcini are working, pour about 1/4 cup EVOO into a small bowl. Use a pastry brush to coat the portobellos in EVOO and place them on hot grill. Cook until dark and tender, 7-8 minutes, turning once. Remove and let rest.

  • 5

    Heat a large deep skillet with 2 tablespoons EVOO, 2 turns of the pan, over medium-high heat. Add shiitakes and cook a few minutes then add garlic and cook a couple minutes longer. Add wine and reduce a minute. Halve and slice portobellos then add to shiitakes. Scatter the rosemary into the pan and turn to distribute the herb. Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper. Stir in tomatoes. Remove the porcini from steeping broth with a slotted spoon and chop. Stir mushrooms into sauce then add a few ladles of the steeping broth. Do not use the very last of it: any grit in the dried mushrooms will have settled to the bottom of the pot. Let flavors combine for a couple of minutes more.

  • 6

    Drain pasta and add to warm pot. Grate some Romano down over the pasta and add a few ladles of the sauce to the pasta. Toss the pasta and sauce to coat, then transfer to a serving platter or into individual bowls and top with remaining sauce.
