"This soup was fantastic, especially for a cold winter night! It is light but filling and super easy to make. Next time I might try a different kind of bean, as I wasn't a huge fan of the cannellini beans, but regardless this was delicious!

"This dish was incredibly delicious. I made it for a recent Holiday Potluck and it was a huge success. I was able to find the truffle butter in the specialty food case at my local Whole Foods, for those that are having difficulty. After reading the reviews online about it being too salty, I tasted the sauce several times as I gradually added salt (and I used kosher salt, not regular table salt). I ended up using just under a full tablespoon (1/2 tablespoon less than the recipe indicated). Be sure not to salt the pasta water as you normally would, but with just a pinch as Ina indicates, and be sure to use unsalted butter. To save some money, I used portabellos instead of shiitake mushrooms and left the cream sherry out altogether. I cannot imagine this being more tasty! Will definitely make again (but not too soon...it is quite rich!).
