Cucina Italiano- A Photo-Essay of fettuccine con salsa di crema di funghi pancetta

I had the house to myself tonight so i decided to prepare a dish featuring local fresh produce.

I decided to use:
Pomodori (tomatoes) from the garden.
Panchetta (bacon) from the local farm
Funghi (mushrooms) from nearby kennett square pa, the mushroom capital of the world
Burro (butter) from local farm
Crema (cream) from local farm
homemade fettucine, from flour and eggs from our chickens.
Origano (oregano) fresh from the garden
Vino Bianco del Piemonte (white wine from Piemonte, Italy)

first I chopped the Mushrooms

I lost the photo of adding the oregano but i did that a minute or two before adding the cream.

Once the wine had reduced: add the cream(I used half and half to cut Kcals)
