I like to use a fairly flat noodle, such as farfalle, with mushroom sauces. Do try to use one of the varieties of brown mushrooms suggested for a full-bodied flavor.

Preparation
Step 1
Cook the pasta according to package directions and drain.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet. Add the garlic and sauté over low heat, just until the garlic begins to turn golden, about 1 minute.
Step 3
Add the mushrooms. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and have released some liquid, about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Combine the pasta with the mushroom mixture in a serving container. Add the Parmesan cheese and toss together. Season with salt and pepper and serve, passing around additional Parmesan cheese for topping, if desired.
