Tagliatelle with Wild Mushrooms

Gennaro was taught to forage for mushrooms at an early age in Italy, and to this day loves to cook pasta dishes with mushrooms! This dish can also be made with wild or cultivated mushrooms like dried porcini, which is easy to source from delis and supermarkets. Recipe credit: Gennaro Contaldo Photo credit: Bertolli
