Three Mushrooms White Spaghetti

This white spaghetti recipe is very similar to carbonara using all-purpose cream instead of tomato sauce. This dish contains three kinds of mushrooms, the button mushrooms, oyster mushrooms and straw mushrooms. These mushrooms are easy to find in supermarkets and canned mushrooms are always available compared to fresh ones. Pine nuts are usually used in this kind of pasta but since it is not available in our local supermarkets and if you can find one, it is very expensive so sunflower seeds is I think the best substitute. They are cheaper than pine nuts.
