Truffle Butter
The best way to store unused truffle for an entire year of truffle deliciousness, is to make this recipe.
There’s something undeniably luxurious about black truffles—and when you combine them with creamy butter, you’ve got instant gourmet magic. This Black Truffle Butter is ridiculously easy to make but adds five-star flair to just about anything. Whether you’ve scored a fresh truffle or are using preserved slices or truffle paste, this compound butter is your new secret weapon in the kitchen. Keep it in the fridge or freezer and add instant elegance to even the simplest dishes.
Serve your Black Truffle Butter with:
– Rested grilled steak or roast chicken
– Freshly cooked pasta or gnocchi
– Soft scrambled eggs or poached eggs on toast
– Steamed asparagus, broccolini or green beans
– Warm crusty bread or sourdough
– Mashed or roasted potatoes
– Popcorn (yes, seriously)
– Polenta or risotto
– A finishing dollop on soups or creamy sauces
Once you’ve made it, you’ll find yourself adding it to everything. Because once you truffle, you can't ruffle.
