20g dried mixed forest mushrooms
2/3 cup boiling water
375g orecchiette (or other short pasta)
65g butter
2 tablespoons plain flour
1 cup milk
200g brown mushrooms, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, plus extra to serve
150g taleggio, diced (see Note)
50g stale sourdough bread, finely chopped
3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
*** Taleggio is an Italian washed rind cheese. It has a strong aroma but a mild taste. There is no need to discard the rind as it will impart flavour. You could replace the taleggio with another washed rind cheese ***
Go here for the rest.
