Yield:
Ingredients:
 
1/2 cup Dried Porcini Mushrooms
0.1 kg Fresh Wild Mushrooms
    Chantrelles- Morels- Oyster Or Cremini
20 ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil Plus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 sm White Onions Very Finely Chopped
    Or Red Onion

40 ml Fresh Parsley Very Finely Chopped

1 tsp Chopped Fresh Rosemary
60 ml Tomato Paste
1/4 cup Dry Red Wine
2 1/2 cup Italian Tomatoes
    Drained, Chopped
1/2 tsp Salt
    Freshly Ground Pepper
4 cup Small Shells Pasta
Method:
Cook pasta according to package directions.



Soak the porcini in 1 C of warm water for 30 min (I boiled the water and soaked them in that). Drain, reserving the soaking liquid. Squeeze the water out of the porcini, then cut into thumbnail-size pieces. Set aside.



Strain the soaking liquid thru a fine strainer or muslin and reserve.



Meanwhile, use a soft cloth or brush to clean the fresh mushrooms.



Separate the stems from the caps, discarding the stems if they are tough.



Cut the mushrooms into halves, or quarters if large, then slice thinly.



Warm the oil in a lg pan over med-low heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot and parsley and saute until soft, about 12 min.



Stir in the rehydrated porcini and rosemary (I ran the dried rosemary thru my coffee grinder) and saute gently for 5 min. Add the fresh mushrooms and cook until soft, about 7 - 8 min.



Stir in the tomato paste and the reserved porcini liquid and combine thoroughly. Simmer gently to evaporate the liquid for about 5 min. Pour in the wine and simmer until the alcohol has evaporated, about 3 min.



Add the tomatoes and salt. Allow the sauce to simmer over very low heat, partially covered, until it is thickened and fragrant, about 40 min, stirring occasionally. Remove the sauce from the heat and check the seasoning.



This is incredibly good sauce. It is definitely a keeper.



NOTES : This is incredibly good sauce. It is definitely a keeper. It takes time to prep and cook this but it is definitely worth it.
