    From Alessandro Borghese Kitchen Sound, "Pappardelle alla Boscaiola" is a classic 1980s dish. The essential ingredients for this timeless recipe are: sausage, which must be thoroughly toasted; mushrooms; and peas, which add a touch of sweetness to the dish. The secret to making a good boscaiola is cream, whose creaminess and flavor balance out all the other ingredients.

    Ingredients for 4 people
    • 400 g of pappardelle
    • 300 g of champignon mushrooms
    • 300 g of peas
    • 100 g of sausage
    • 100 g of diced speck
    • 200 g of fresh cream
    • 1 shallot
    • EVO oil to taste
    • Grated Parmesan cheese to taste
    Preparation

    Finely chop the shallot and crumble the sausage. Heat a nonstick pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, then sauté the shallot, speck, and sausage. Once the sausage is well browned, add the mushrooms and peas. Add two ladles of the cooking water. Bring the water for the pasta to a boil and season with salt. Add the pappardelle. Drain the pasta and toss it in the pan. To finish, turn off the heat and season with a few tablespoons of fresh cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Before serving, don't forget to sprinkle with pepper!
