Creamy Mushroom & Truffle Oil Spaghetti

Cream and oil-based pasta dishes are currently my favorite. I still like tomato-based pasta but it’s taking a backseat for now. I just love that  creamy cheese and extra-virgin olive oil in my pasta,  I like spaghetti the most among all pasta shapes and sizes out there.  Of course you may use your preferred pasta for this recipe, I like fettuccine, too.

Now for this particular dish, I finally gave in into buying a truffle oil, even though I know it’s artificially flavored, it is still EVOO.   No bits of  truffles in it just the “aroma”which is the “closest” I can get to the real thing.

I have never seen or have eaten real truffle. I know truffles are wild mushroom that grows underground and can mostly be found in Italy. It cannot be cultivated or farmed. It is rare especially the white ones and therefore very  expensive. So, I really don’t have any idea as to how it taste or smell like.  I’m putting it on my bucket list. ü

I hope I can find that bottle of extra-virgin olive oil with real truffles in it that really captures the flavor and aroma of the real thing…but this article from NY Times is very enlightening and kinda crushed my hope of finding it. :I

Happy Cooking!

Creamy Coconut Mushroom Soup

Olive
Enjoy this creamy soup as is (perfect for those on Keto Diet) or with crusty bread for a healthy light meal but I like it better as "gravy" for pork chops/steaks served with steamed rice. So good!
