What is Mascarpone Cheese?
Mascarpone is a pretty common ingredient however, you may still be unfamiliar with what it is. Mascarpone is a type of cheese that’s used much in the way that ricotta is. It’s made with whole cream tartaric acid to thicken it. It’s delicious and creamy and pairs well with pasta dishes which is why it’s perfect in this Mascarpone Mushroom Pasta recipe.
What Can I substitute for Mascarpone Cheese?
Although it won’t taste exactly the same, you can also try to use Ricotta cheese as a substitute for Mascarpone cheese in this recipe.
Is This Really An Air Fryer Pasta Recipe?
Many of my air fryer recipes are made by just putting everything in the air fryer. However, with this dish, that’s not the case. Yes, you do have to make the pasta separately, but the sauce is so hands off that it practically cooks itself, so you still bought yourself some extra time! Despite having one little extra step to add on outside the use of the air fryer, this is still one of my quicker dinner dishes. The combination of earthy mushrooms with the creamy pasta just makes for a wonderful blend of flavors in this Mascarpone Mushroom Pasta. One thing that I love about pasta is that it’s easy to get a version that’s egg-free and allergy-friendly altogether. This makes it a healthier option as well as vegetarian-friendly. Not to mention, it’s a dish that won’t leave you feeling hungry even though there’s no meat.
What Kind Of Low Carb Pasta Can I Use?
So of course, the way to make this a keto recipe is to switch out the pasta. Here are a few options:
