    1      teaspoon      minced garlic

      3/4  pound         fresh angel hair pasta

 * WITH ST. JOHN'S CHEESE SAUCE Preheat the grill. Season each mushroom 
 with olive oil and Essence. Place on the grill and grill for 3-4
 minutes 
 on each side.  For the sauce: In a hot saute pan, add the cream. When
 the 
 cream starts to bubble and thicken, whisk in the cheese. Season with
 the 
 garlic, salt and pepper. Simmer the sauce for 2-3 minutes.  In a pot of
 boiling salted and oiled water, drop in the fresh pasta for about 2 
 minutes, remove, drain, and add directly to the sauce. Remove the 
 mushrooms and slice on the bias into 2-inch slices. Using a pair of
 tongs, 
 place three nests of pasta in the center of the platter.
 Spoon the remaining sauce over the pasta and around the plate. Arrange
 the 
 mushroom around the pasta. Garnish with hand-shaved cheese and chives. 
 Yield: 2 main course servings.
