Ingredients
- 250g plain flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- 350g chanterelles or any mushroom
- 4 tbsp butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp fresh thyme
- 100g parmesan
- 1/2 lemon
Step 1
Knead the plain flour, eggs, egg yolk, and ½ teaspoon of salt together until a soft dough forms. Cover and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Step 2
Roll the pasta out as thin as possible, then slice it into thin strips to make tagliatelle.
Step 3
Bring a pot of water to a boil and season it generously with salt.
Step 4
Sauté the chanterelles in a hot, dry pan until some of the moisture evaporates. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and continue cooking until the mushrooms begin to brown. Stir in the garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional 30 seconds.
Step 5
Cook the pasta for 1 1/2 minutes.
Step 6
Add the pasta along with a ladle of pasta water. Stir in the Parmesan and more pasta water as needed. Toss everything together until a glossy sauce forms.
Step 7
Finish with the juice of half a lemon. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then sprinkle with black pepper before serving.
