Prep Time: 25 minutes | Cook Time: 35 minutes | Serves: 4

Ingredients:

For the Pasta:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour

• 3 large eggs

• Pinch sea salt

For the White Bolognese:

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• ½ lb Italian sausage, casing removed

• 1 small onion, finely chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 cup mushrooms, finely chopped

• ½ cup dry white wine

• 1 cup whole milk

• ½ cup heavy cream

• ¼ tsp sea salt

• ¼ tsp black pepper

For the Finish:

• 1 tbsp truffle oil or truffle paste

• ½ cup grated Grana Padano or parmesan cheese

• Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions:

• Prepare the Pasta Dough: On a clean surface, mound flour and create a well in the center. Crack in eggs and add salt. Gradually mix until a dough forms, then knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth. Wrap and let rest for 20 minutes. Roll out and cut into wide pappardelle strips.

• Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook fresh pappardelle for 2 to 3 minutes until tender. Reserve ½ cup pasta water, then drain.

• Make the White Bolognese: Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart. Stir in onion and garlic, cooking until softened. Add mushrooms and cook until moisture evaporates.

• Build the Sauce: Pour in white wine and simmer until reduced. Add milk and cream, stirring until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

• Combine: Add cooked pasta to the sauce, tossing gently. Use reserved pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce. Stir in truffle oil and grated cheese.

• Serve: Plate immediately and garnish with extra cheese and parsley if desired.

Shopping Tips:

• Choose high-quality Italian sausage with minimal additives for better flavor and nutrition

Cooking Tips:
