Portobello mushrooms are simply button mushrooms or brown mushrooms that have been allowed to reach full maturity. In other words, a mushroom for you, whose maturity and wisdom is so apparent as to be self-evidence. (Why are you sticking your tongue out at us?) The fabulous fungi are mixed in with kale (also a very grown-up food) and sauced by a roasted red pepper cream that belies a certain sophistication in the palate. Sprinkle a little pecorino on top, and this is some decidedly age-of-majority, pays-their-own-taxes pasta here. (But still young at heart!)
