Tagliatelle with truffle
Ingredients:
- white truffle tagliatelle Lina Sapori e Delizie
- 125 g butter (if you want to add a special touch, use truffle butter Lina Sapori e Delizie)
- white or black truffle as desired, from Lina Sapori e Delizie)
- salt to taste
Preparation:
- put plenty of cold water in a pot on the stove and bring to a boil
- add salt and drop in the pasta
- while the pasta cooks, slowly melt the butter in a pan
- if using black truffle, when the butter is completely melted, add some truffle by grating it with a truffle slicer
- drain the tagliatelle al dente and toss them into the pan
- sauté the pasta, adding a little cooking water
- place the tagliatelle on plates and grate more truffle over the steaming tagliatelle
Tips:
- if using white truffle, do not cook it in the pan: place it directly on the tagliatelle after plating them
- to enhance the flavor and aroma of the truffle, you can warm the plate on which you will serve the tagliatelle
- consume the tagliatelle immediately: you cannot store or freeze them as they would lose their flavor and aroma
- you can store fresh truffle for 4 or 5 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container wrapped in a sheet of paper towel, remembering to change the paper daily
Truffle, a hidden gem of the earth, is the secret that transforms every dish into an extraordinary experience, and for this reason, it is one of the most appreciated and prized ingredients. White truffle is available from approximately October to mid-December: rare and precious, it releases an unmistakable and enveloping aroma, with refined notes reminiscent of aged cheese and sweet garlic, making it the absolute protagonist of gourmet cuisine. Black truffle is available, more or less, throughout the year: more delicate and with a less intense aroma, it adds depth to flavors, perfect for recipes requiring light cooking. A natural luxury to savor. Both add a touch of elegance and uniqueness to every dish.
Enjoy your meal!
