This Vegan creamy tagliatelle is an easy and delicious pasta recipe with the creamy texture we love. Made with fresh, organic ingredients, this dish combines the rich, smoothness of a dairy-free sauce with the satisfying bite of perfectly cooked tagliatelle. It’s a perfect choice for a comforting meal. Besides, you can make this recipe gluten-free by using rice or corn flour-based pasta or a protein-rich version like lentil pasta, according to your preferences.
The most important ingredient in the recipe is mushrooms, which have heavy, warming, and grounding qualities. Mushrooms are considered tamasic, known for their calming and grounding effects.
Food energetics in Ayurveda rajasic and tamasic, refer to food items ability to stimulate or calm the body and mind. We need both of these energies to carry out our lives. Rajas equals action, tamas equals inaction.
When an organism performs activities and rest in harmony it is said to be in a sattvic state, the third dimension of the energetics.
Sattva is a given, inherent quality to all plants and animals, except humans. Sattva is a positive energetic stamp on rajasic and tamasic foods. Fresh, organic, local, and seasonal foods that have grown mature in their natural habitat contain it. This also should be in our guideline for choosing the healthy fruits and vegetables for us.
