Mushroom “pesto” linguine

Pesto Italian cuisine

Hi guys! Here we are with another delicious treat for all of you. It’s been a while since the last time I cooked pasta. And I love it so much… I should do it more often. Today I did linguine with mushrooms “pesto”, green peas, sun-dried tomatoes and toasted pine nuts. It’s so smooth and full of flavor guys – this mushroom “pesto” could become one of my favorite recipes. Fun facts The name linguine means “little tongues” in Italian, where it is a plural of the feminine linguina. Linguine are also called trenette or bavette. A thinner version of linguine is called linguettine. Linguine originated in Genoa and the Liguria region of Italy. The “pesto” is fairly easy to prepare. You just need to sautee the mushrooms with some onions and garlic, and season with salt and pepper. When the mushrooms are fully cooked you have to transfer them into a blender with some hot water added and some toasted pine nuts. Blend everything until super smooth and taste it. If it needs any seasoning adjustments – feel free to do it. Here’s the recipe with the ingredients list. Print Mushroom "Pesto" Linguine Prep time: 2 mins Cook time: […]
