HERBED PASTA WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Soak dried shiitake mushrooms in warm water for 20-30 minute to rehydrate. Squeeze out any excess water.
• Cook pasta according to package directions and set aside.
• In large pan heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, mushrooms and garlic.
• Reduce heat to medium and add butter, red pepper, Italian Seasoning, garlic, and basil. Cook about 1-2 minute to mix flavors.
• Add wine. Cook another 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
• Add milk and let simmer until liquid is almost evaporated.
• Mix pasta into "sauce" and add a bit more milk or butter if needed to evenly coat.
• Sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano and serve.
