This delicious hearty Italian Pasta Dish is a typical Fall Pasta comfort food. Inspired by freshly picked mushrooms in the Fall in the Italian woods.

I didn’t go mushroom picking but I did wake up to a nice blanket of snow this morning, and this is the perfect Pasta dish that we need on a day like today.

I decided to make my Pasta dish the typical White Creamy way. Made with whole cream, chopped mushrooms and Italian sausage and I like to give it a little kick with some hot pepper flakes.

Different types of Pasta Alla Boscaiola

  • Boscaiola Pasta always includes mushrooms
  • But it is sometimes made with chopped onions, pancetta or sausage (casing removed) and of course mushrooms, usually Porcini mushrooms in a delicious tomato sauce.
  • Or sometimes with peas in either a white sauce or red sauce and of course don’t forget the mushrooms.
  • Some like to use short pasta, penne pasta and others prefer a long pasta, such as linguine.
  • Or made the way I have made this Boscaiola Recipe with fresh whole cream, mushrooms and Italian sausage.
  • Whichever way you choose this is Pasta dish is really delicious.

This is a quick and easy Pasta Recipe that is perfect for either the weeknight or even the weekend.

I like to serve it with chopped fresh parsley and sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan Cheese.

I also chose short ridgy pasta because as the Italian says, it’s the best pasta, so that all the ingredients cling to it! Buon Appetito!

        Excellent! Easy, Delicious, Adaptable! My full blooded Italian husband and the whole family, including kids, loved this! Will make again. Any suggestions for veggies to use for a vegetarian version?

          Hi Joanie, thanks so much, so glad everyone enjoyed it, your husband too! Peas, asparagus, leeks, shallots, onions, fennel and tomatoes all go well with mushrooms. Hope this helps. Take care!
