Notes
How Much Pasta To Use?
Rule of thumb is 2 ounces / 57 grams of dry pasta per person. Although you could increase to 2 1/2 ounces / 75 grams. This will yield approximately 1 1/4 – 1 3/4 cups cooked.How to store mushroom fettuccine
This pasta dish is best served immediately but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. I like to save a little pasta water to use when reheating the leftovers.Nutrition
