FAQ’s
Which mushroom is good for pasta?
Flavor of mushroom pasta is altered by different types of mushrooms. You can use a combination of mushrooms, or like I used some white button mushrooms.
Can I use milk instead of cream in pasta?
You can substitute cream for milk but it will not be a thicker sauce and you would have to thicken it with some flour. A ratio of 1 cup of milk to 2 tablespoons of flour or cornstarch. Adding 2-3 tablespoons of butter for taste.
Can I use evaporated milk instead of heavy cream in pasta?
You can use whole milk, fat free milk, evaporated milk, as it is said that these milk products have more fats that regular milk. So using milk as a heavy cream substitute for your pasta dishes is fine.

How to cook pasta in a sauce
The sauce must be thin enough and that is why we add water to this sauce. Also you need to use a pasta that will absorb better such as Barilla Collezione Tagliatelle made of egg dough. It has rough porous surface and helps the sources absorb better.
Once adding the Tagliatelle pasta, stir to prevent burning. This pasta made of egg will be cooked in about 6 minutes.

Do you cook pasta in the sauce or separately.
It is beneficial to cook the pasta in the sauce as it will absorb the flavours, and the sauce should be thin enough for this to happen.
If you cook the pasta separately then the pasta will be overcooked by the time your sauce is done and all the ingredients are mixed together. As the pasta continues to cook once removed from the liquid.

This is why this One Pot Recipe is really a one pot recipe and is so tasty and even fussy pasta eaters will eat it because of the sauce.
