Ok, today a very flavorful recipe!! Maltagliati means "badly cut" pasta
due to their irregular shape!

I love Porcini mushrooms and they are abundant in Europe markets during the Summer and Fall.

      I made this tonight and thought it was delicious! Given available time and resources, I made a few substitutes that kept this from being as delicious as I'm sure it would be if Fabio made it in Rome. Here's what I did. I substituted 11 oz of packaged Rotini for the fresh Maltagliata (biggest sin). I also reconstituted a package (about 1oz) of dried Italian wild mushrooms. I used about 1/2 cup of wine, and a cup of fish stock I made using Dashi (Japanese fish stock granules that are sold in Asian grocery stores). I used about 2 Tbsp EVOO, 6 roma tomaotes, 2 large cloves of garlic, and about 1 pound of shrimp. I also added a healthy amount of kosher salt and pepper, and served with freshly grated parmesan. It was a great pasta which our kids all loved too. While it would certainly have been better with the freshly made Maltagliata, don't let that stop you if you dont want to break out the pasta machine. It's still quite tasty with dried pasta! Thanks for posting, Fabio!

        I add fresh basil since this is the time of the year for harvesting it

            Simply delicious, Fabio! And so thankful that in this we have permission to use "badly cut" pasta! I am still perfecting mine!

                Can I ask why the stems go in after the mushroom tops?
