Instructions
- Soak dried mushrooms in enough boiling water to cover about 15 minutes or until soft. Drain, discarding liquid. Squeeze mushrooms to remove additional liquid.
- Meanwhile, for mushroom sauce: In a 4- to 5-quart Dutch oven, cook and stir leek and garlic in hot butter over medium heat for 2 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove leek mixture.
- Add oil to Dutch oven; heat over medium-high heat. Add porcini mushrooms & button mushrooms, and cremini mushrooms. Cook about 15 minutes or until mushrooms are lightly browned and liquid is evaporated, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in wine, salt, and pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together cream and flour; stir into mushroom mixture. Cook and stir until thickened. Cook and stir for 1 minute more. Stir in leek mixture and parsley.
- Meanwhile, cook gnocchi according to package directions. Add gnocchi to the mushroom sauce. Serve gnocchi with mushroom sauce.
Recipe Notes
Additional Tips
- For extra depth of flavor, add a splash of dry white wine or marsala to the mushrooms just after sautéing and let it reduce before adding other liquids.
- To create a spicy variation, sprinkle in crushed Calabrian chili or a pinch of red pepper flakes while the mushrooms cook to infuse the sauce with Italian heat.
- For a vegan version, substitute the butter with vegan margarine or additional olive oil and use plant-based gnocchi; finish the sauce with a spoonful of nutritional yeast for a cheesy note.
- For an elegant touch, garnish finished plates with fresh thyme leaves or finely chopped chives, and a drizzle of truffle oil to amplify the mushroom aroma.
