  1. Prep and Pasta
    1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the salt for pasta water. Cook the pasta until 1-2 minutes shy of the package time so it is al dente. Reserve 1 cup (240 ml) of starchy pasta water, then drain without rinsing.
    400 g Dried pasta (fettuccine or penne), 2 tbsp Salt (for pasta water)
  2. Mushroom Sauce
    2. While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil and butter in a large wide pan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms in a single layer, cook undisturbed for 3 minutes, then stir and cook another 5-6 minutes until deeply golden and their liquid has evaporated.
    500 g Cremini mushrooms, sliced, 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
  3. 3. Reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic and thyme, and stir for 30-45 seconds until fragrant but not browned. Pour in the white wine and simmer 2 minutes until nearly evaporated, scraping up the browned bits.
    4 clove Garlic cloves, minced, 0.5 cup Dry white wine, 1 tsp Fresh thyme leaves
  4. 4. Stir in the heavy cream, fine sea salt, black pepper and nutmeg. Simmer gently for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened and able to coat the back of a spoon.
    1 cup Heavy cream, 0.5 tsp Freshly ground black pepper, 0.5 tsp Fine sea salt, 1 pinch Fresh nutmeg, grated
  5. Finish and Serve
    5. Add the spinach to the sauce and stir for 1 minute until just wilted. Add the drained pasta with a splash of the reserved pasta water and toss over medium heat for 1-2 minutes.
    150 g Fresh baby spinach
  6. 6. Remove the pan from the heat, sprinkle in the Parmigiano-Reggiano and toss, adding more pasta water a splash at a time until the sauce is glossy and clings to the pasta. Finish with the lemon juice, taste for seasoning, and serve immediately.
    1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, finely grated, 1 tsp Lemon juice
