Oooo yes — Creamy Miso Mushroom Pasta 🍄🍜 is straight-up cozy umami magic. Earthy mushrooms + silky miso cream = a bowl of comfort with gourmet energy. It’s like if your favorite pasta put on a cashmere sweater and got deep into flavor therapy. 💫🍂
Ingredients:
- 8 oz pasta (linguine, fettuccine, or your fave noodle vibe)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
- 2–3 cups mixed mushrooms (shiitake, cremini, oyster = dreamy)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp thyme (fresh or dried)
- ¼ cup dry white wine or veggie broth (optional but yum)
- 1 tbsp white miso paste
- ¾ cup heavy cream or coconut cream
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Parmesan or nutritional yeast (optional for extra depth)
- Fresh parsley or chives to garnish 🌿
Instructions:
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve some pasta water before draining.
- Sauté mushrooms in olive oil/butter over medium-high heat. Let them brown and get a little crispy on the edges (don’t overcrowd!). Add garlic & thyme, sauté 1 more minute.
- Deglaze with wine or broth if using. Stir in miso paste — let it melt into the goodness.
- Add cream and stir gently. Simmer for a couple minutes until slightly thickened.
- Toss in the pasta, adding a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen it if needed. Mix until silky and well-coated.
- Season with salt, pepper, and finish with cheese (or nooch) if you like.
- Top with herbs, cracked pepper, and maybe a squeeze of lemon if you want a pop.
Flavor Vibe:
Savory, creamy, deep, and just a touch funky — in the best way. Think “cozy dinner with candles and jazz” or “I made this for someone I like a lot (even if it’s me).” 😌🍷
