Recipe adapted from the charming detroiter.

CREAMY BALSAMIC PASTA

Ingredients

• 1 lb Spaghetti
• 3 tbsp Butter
• 4 cloves Garlic
• ½ cup Balsamic Vinegar
• 2 cups Pasta Cream
• Salt
• Black Pepper

Cooking Directions

1. Cook Spaghetti to al dente according to package instructions. Reserve about ½ cup pasta water.         
2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add shrimps and oyster mushrooms later.
4. Add balsamic vinegar and allow to simmer until cooked down to a glaze, about 5 minutes. Add heavy cream and whisk to combine with the balsamic vinegar. Allow to simmer over low heat until the mixture has reduced to about 1 to 1 ¼ cups. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Once pasta has finished cooking, add directly to skillet with cream sauce and basil. Toss to combine. Add some of the reserved pasta water if it is too thick.
