FETTUCCINE WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM AND GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE
In 'Pasta for all Seasons' by Robin Robertson. Bottled green peppercorns have a piquant bite, so adjust amount to taste. Mild white mushrooms are preferred b/c the more assertive flavor of wild mushrooms would compete with the flavor of the peppercorns.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a big saucepan over medium heat; add in shallots; cook 5 minutes or until softened.

- Sprinkle the flour over the shallots/mushroom mixture, cook/stir for 1 minute to remove the raw taste from the flour.
- Decrease heat to low; slowly add the milk, stirring constantly to thicken.
- Add in the peppercorns and salt to taste; simmer 5 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
- Keep warm over very low heat.
- Cook the fettuccine in a big pot of salted boiling water, stirring occasionally, until it is al dente.
