Bar Merenda's Pine Mushroom Tagliatelle by Andy & Claire Ainsworth

Dining at Bar Merenda feels like being welcomed into someone’s home - if that someone was Andy Ainsworth, who has a quiet gift for making people feel well-fed, well-wined, and gently unsure when they were meant to leave!!

This poster features a painting by Bar Merenda co-owner Clare Ainsworth, who paints much like the kitchen cooks - instinctively, seasonally, and with one eye always on what’s quietly beautiful. Her work tends to grow out of what’s already on the table: fennel fronds, stone fruit, a half-finished glass of something good. This one’s a tribute to their Pine Mushroom Tagliatelle ... earthy, silky, and just the right kind of atmosphere (being at Bar Merenda!).

The dish was brought to life by chefs Oliver Edwards and Brianna Smith, and painted just down the hall by Clare - a collaboration born entirely in-house!

This seasonal recipe comes from the team at Bar Merenda and featured in our poster collaboration. Pine mushrooms, with their meaty texture and earthy, nutty flavour, are a true autumn delicacy in Australia, usually appearing in the cooler months after the first rains. If you're lucky enough to spot them at your local grocer - trust us, this is one of the best and easiest ways to enjoy them!

“In Autumn, we get most excited about Pine mushrooms. And is there anything better than a big comforting bowl of egg yolk pasta, mushrooms and butter when it’s cold outside?” – Clare Ainsworth, Bar Merenda.


  • 500gm Pine mushrooms, sliced
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 5 sprigs thyme
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley
  • 250ml dry white wine
  • 200gm butter
  • 100ml Olive oil
  • Parmesan
  • 400g egg yolk tagliatelle

Step 1.
Bring a pot of salted water to the boil.
Step 2.
Heat olive oil and 100g butter in a fry pan, add garlic and thyme. Once starting to brown add mushrooms and toss until golden. Deglaze with wine.
Step 3.
Once water is boiling, add pasta. Cook for desired time and retain a small cup of pasta water before draining.
Step 4.
Add a spoonful of pasta water, more butter and pasta to your mushroom base and toss well, continuing until the sauce is emulsified and glossy. Serve into bowls and finish with chopped parsley and Parmesan.
