* Best to use a combination of mushrooms, oyster, shiitake, and
  portobella.

In a saute pan heat half the oil and saute mushrooms until wilted.
Add the vermouth and reduce the liquid by half Set aside. In a
saucepan heat the remaining oil until almost smoking. Toss in the
tomatoes, garlic, and shallots and braise under high heat for 4 to
5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, reduced liquid, and remaining
ingredients. This sauce could very well use cheese with the pasta.
