Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • large pot

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz pasta
  • 2-3 tablespoon truffle butter
  • 1 shallot minced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • ½ C white wine
  • 2-3 tablespoon truffle tapenade adjust for your taste, you can add more or less
  • ¾ C heavy cream
  • ½ C parmesan cheese
  • shaved truffles in oil optional

Instructions
 

  • Boil pasta: Cook according to package instructions. Be sure to salt your water well!
  • Sauté aromatics: In a pan, melt 2-3 tablespoon truffle butter. Sauté shallot, garlic, and thyme until fragrant.
  • Deglaze with wine: Pour in white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Cook until wine is reduced by half.
  • Add flavor boosters: Stir in truffle tapenade, then add heavy cream. Melt in parmesan, and season with salt and pepper. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Combine with pasta: Toss the cooked pasta into the pan. If you're adding the pasta directly from the pot you cooked it in, this should be enough pasta water to create a thick and creamy sauce.
  • Serve: Plate the pasta, and generously top with shaved truffle.

Notes

  • Experiment with pasta varieties; tagliatelle or fettuccine complement the creamy truffle sauce beautifully.
  • Opt for fresh truffle if available (and affordable, which, usually, it's not) for an intensified earthy aroma and taste, and an extra luxurious experience.
  • Don't rush the wine reduction; it enhances the depth of the sauce.
  • Adjust truffle butter to your preference; 2-3 tablespoon strikes a delightful balance.
  • Serve with a crisp white wine to elevate the dining experience. Enjoy this gourmet delight!
