• Long Gluten Free Pasta– I useda long linguine pastafor my recipe, but you can use any long pasta that you would normally enjoy.
• Butter, plant-based
• Garlic: I use fresh garlic for a great depth of flavor!
• Mushrooms – you can use baby bella, cremini, white button mushrooms, or any kind of mushrooms you prefer. Wipe any dirt off the mushrooms with a damp paper towel before slicing.
• Thyme– I used fresh thyme as we have it growing on our property, butthis dried thymewould be a perfect substitute.
• White Wine,I used a dry white wine like pinot grigio or sauvignon blanc.
• Fresh Parsley– adding fresh herbs brings a lot of flavor!
• Pink Himalayan Sea Salt:I like to use apink Himalayan Sea Saltin my kitchen, which has more natural minerals than plain processed table salt. It’s fairly inexpensive, so I’d recommendthis saltif you’re looking for an easy way to level up your spice pantry.
• Tellicherry Peppercorns:Like the salt, it’s amazing the flavor difference you can get with really goodtellicherry black pepper. Amazon hasa generic brand tellicherry peppercornwhich is the same price is buying pre-ground, and has a million times more flavor… so I use these really greattellicherrypeppercorns, which I would definitely recommend.

Optional Add-Ins & Sides

• Cooked protein – serving this up with chicken breasts or pork chops/pork tenderloin is a great way to make this a whole meal! You can even serve it with steak or red meat too.
• Parmesan cheese – to top the dish with extra flavor.
• Red Pepper Flakes – for a little extra heat!
• Serve with fresh vegetable sides like butter and garlic green beans or peas – or a simple salad!

Which White Wine Is Best for Cooking?

Make sure it’s a high quality wine that you were serve with dinner, and not a cheap cooking wine. I prefer to use a pinot grigio or sauvignon blanc for this white wine pasta recipe, as well as most other recipes that require white wine. I like the dryness of these wines, and the light sweetness they have.

If you want a more robust and flavorful white, then chardonnay would be a great choice. For a sweet wine, try a resiling. But for most of my pasta dishes, pinot grigio it is for me. I love finding different ways to cook with wine, and this homemade mushroom sauce is one of our favorite recipes. It’s a delicious meal with amazing flavorl, and a great option to make on a weeknight.

How Do I Make Mushroom and White Wine Sauce Pasta?

1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain pasta, and set aside while you make the sauce.
2. In a pot, melt butter over medium heat and sauté the garlic for 4 to 5 minutes until it begins to lightly brown. Add the mushrooms, garlic salt, pepper, and thyme, and allow the mushrooms to cook for an additional 10 minutes with the lid off. While the mushrooms are reducing, cook the pasta according to package instructions.
3. Add the white wine to the mushrooms. And continue to sauté on low heat.
4. Once the pasta has finished cooking, add the pasta directly to the pot with the mushroom sauce. Top with fresh parsley. Taste, and add more salt and pepper if desired. Mangia!

Notes: If the sauce is too thick, add 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking liquid to the pot. If the sauce is too thin, add 1 tablespoon of corn starch or flour to thicken the sauce.

Eat Seasonal with This Mushroom Pasta

This mushroomsauce recipe is a great way to get in some mushrooms when they are in season! Mushrooms are available all year in stores, but by us they pop up in the late summer and fall.

We see tons of mushrooms growing on our homestead (however, we only eat varieties we buy in the store). While I made this pasta with white or cremini mushrooms, you can mix it up and use any mushroom variety you enjoy from the store. Enoki mushrooms or portabella slices would be fantastic also!
