This is a beautiful and flavorful salad with a fresh ginger dressing. The cap of the shiitake mushroom has a meaty flesh with a lot of flavor; reserve the tough stems for stocks. White or cremini mushrooms can be substituted. These are much less expensive, but not as flavorful.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. capellini pasta
  • 1/2 lb. shiitake mushrooms
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 C. rice vinegar
  • 3 Tbs. soy sauce
  • 1 Tbs. vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp. grated fresh ginger
  • 1 Tbs. chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water. Meanwhile, clean, stem, and slice mushrooms. Add mushrooms and red bell pepper during last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain. In a small bowl, mix together vinegar, soy sauce, oil, and ginger. Transfer pasta, mushrooms, and pepper to a serving bowl; toss with ginger dressing. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Yield: 4 servings
