On a clean work surface or in a large mixing bowl, pile the flour and form a well in the center. Crack the eggs into the well and gently beat them with a fork.
Gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. Knead the dough for 8β10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.
While the dough rests, soak the dried porcini mushrooms in 250 ml of warm water for 20 minutes. Once softened, drain the mushrooms, reserving the soaking liquid, and finely chop them.
In a large skillet, melt the butter with olive oil over medium heat. Add finely minced garlic and sautΓ© until fragrant, about 1β2 minutes.
Add the chopped porcini mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 3β4 minutes. Stir in the reserved soaking liquid, straining out any grit, and simmer for another 5 minutes.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Let the sauce simmer gently, thickening slightly, for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Stir in half of the grated Parmesan cheese and the parsley, reserving some parsley for garnish.
Roll out the pasta dough using a pasta machine or rolling pin until thin. Cut into tagliatelle strips and dust with a little flour to prevent sticking.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tagliatelle for 2β3 minutes, or until al dente. Reserve some pasta water before draining.
Toss the cooked tagliatelle with the porcini mushroom sauce, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to thin the sauce.
Serve immediately, garnished with the remaining Parmesan cheese and parsley.
