How to Make Truffle Pasta
Now, onto this pasta dish! As soon as I saw this White Truffle Infused Oil, I knew I needed truffle pasta in my life immediately.
Let's take a closer look.
Step One - Sauté the Garlic Mushrooms
First, we sauté the garlic and mushrooms.
Mince the garlic and chop the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces and cook them on medium-high heat with a bit of truffle oil. Cooke them for 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are dark golden brown and slightly crispy.
Step Two - Cook the Pasta
Add the vegetable broth and pasta to the mushrooms and garlic. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes until the pasta is cooked all the way through and most of the liquid has absorbed.
Step Three - Add the Sauce
Finally, we add our creamy pistachio sauce.
To do this, add the milk and vegan parmesan to the pasta noodles, stirring to fully coat. Once the cheese has melted, stir in the pistachios and sun-dried tomatoes. Once it is cooked all the way through, remove from heat and serve.
To finish, top with a few chopped pistachios, vegan parmesan cheese, and White Summer Truffle Salt.
Serving and Storing
Serve this vegan pasta immediately with chopped pistachios, parmesan cheese, and White Summer Truffle Salt.
Store leftover pasta in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently reheat the pasta over the stove with 1-2 tablespoons of water.
Variations of Truffle Pasta
One of the best things about this recipe is that it's highly versatile. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- I love Eden Food's Organic Kamut Spaghetti. It is high in fiber and made with whole grains. However, you can use any type of pasta.
- Any kind of wild mushroom will do for this recipe. I used shiitake but you can also get a wild mushroom blend or your favorite wild mushroom of choice.
- If you can't find vegan parmesan, you can use 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast instead.
I think that's everything you need to know about making this delicious pasta dish. Let's take a look at the recipe below.

Allergic to pistachios. What other nut would you suggest?

You could omit or try it with hazelnuts.

I made this last night after seeing the recipe in my in-box. It was really, really good and I happened to have all of the ingredients on hand. I used "regular" spaghetti (as that's what I had). I'd forgotten that I had truffle oil until I saw the recipe and it gave me a great reason to break it out of the back of the cabinet. For the mushrooms I used a blend of oyster, black trumpet, portobello and porcini. Will definitely be making this again.
