Notes

We used cremini mushrooms – also called portobellini mushrooms, baby bella mushrooms. You can also use regular white button mushrooms in this recipe but they are not quite as flavorful. You can use any pasta for this. Penne works great, but so does linguine or any type of pasta that you like. To adapt this recipe for gluten-free, use a gluten-free all purpose flour blend in the same quantity OR use half the amount of cornstarch (so it would be 2 tablespoon cornstarch), and then of course use a gluten-free pasta and you are good to go. Keep any leftovers stored in the fridge, covered. They will keep for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave.
