Fresh Pasta with Chanterelles
Mushroom season is upon us so go get your fix!! This works great with any mushrooms, just make sure to cook them with no oil first to draw out the water and so they can crisp up in the oil. And we didnt even use a pasta machine for this so there is no excuse for you not to make some fresh pasta :)
