8OuncesMushrooms, I used a combo of baby bella, shiitakes, and oyster)
3/4CupWhite wine, vegan
1TablespoonFresh Rosemary, chopped
1TablespoonFresh sage, chopped
Instructions
Start by making cashew cream. After you soak the cashews, drain them and add them to a blender. Add the non-dairy milk to the blender and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until completely smooth. It may take a few minutes, depending on your blender. Set aside.
Now, start the linguine. Heat the vegan butter on medium high in a very large skillet. Add the garlic and sauté, reducing heat as needed for 1-2 minutes.
Add the vegetable broth and water to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium low and then add the linguine to the skillet. Press the linguine into the liquid in the skillet at much as possible.
Simmer, stirring frequently, until the linguine is al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid. This will take about 15 minutes or so. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
While the linguine simmers, make the mushrooms. In a separate skillet, heat the vegan butter for the mushrooms on medium high. Then add the garlic.
Sauté, reducing heat as needed for about 1-2 minutes. Then add the mushrooms.
Sauté until the mushrooms have released their liquid and are starting to brown. This will take about 8-10 minutes.
Add the wine, rosemary and sage. Simmer until most of the wine has been absorbed, about 8-10 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
When the linguine is done and the mushrooms are done, add the mushrooms to the skillet with the linguine. Then add a little bit of the cashew cream at a time until it is a creamy as you want it.
Add the vegan Parmesan, parsley and squeeze of lemon. Taste and adjust seasonings. adding more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately.
Notes
