The fungus (Ipogeo) is scraped or grated onto food and into sauces and soups just before eating. Truffle slicers have been specially designed for this purpose. Experts recommend that veal, chicken, fish, soufflés, omelets, pasta, and rice can be glorified with thinly sliced truffles. Cream and cheese sauces avidly take up their flavor. Insert thin wedges of truffle under the skin of a chicken and store it overnight in the refrigerator before roasting. A well-known chef prepares a high-quality pâté de foie gras baked with a stainless steel tube running through the center. As soon as the pâté is cooked, he fills the tube with diced uncooked truffles and then removes the tube. Tuber Magnatum Pico is the Ne Plus Ultra of the Fungi kingdom.

Mushroom Risotto With FD TARTUFI Black Truffle Oil
Serve 4
Ingredients
8 cups organic vegetable stock1/4 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 cups assorted wild mushrooms, diced or sliced
1/2 cup onion, diced
1 cup carnaroli rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup organic unsalted butter or olive oil
1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, grated
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
FD TARTUFI Black truffle oil, for serving
Directions
Place stock and dried mushrooms in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer for about 5 minutes to reconstitute the mushrooms.
Remove mushrooms and chop finely. Keep stock at a simmer over low heat. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add wild mushrooms, stirring occasionally, and cook until golden and soft, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. To the same pan, add remaining olive oil, reconstituted mushrooms, and onions. Cook until translucent.
Add rice; cook, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring, until wine is absorbed by the rice. Add ¾ cup hot stock to the rice.
Stir constantly until the rice has absorbed most but not all of the liquid and the mixture is thick. Add another ¾ cup stock. Repeat this process until the rice is al dente. As the rice nears doneness, watch carefully, adding smaller amounts of liquid.
The risotto should be slightly creamy and thick; it will thicken further when removed from heat. Add the reserved mushrooms and remove from heat. Stir in butter or olive oil and Parmesan; season with salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle a few drops of truffle oil over each serving. Serve immediately.

Serve 2
Ingredients
For the white wine sauce:
6 tablespoons white wine½ medium shallot, minced
1 cup heavy cream
¼ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Sea salt
Freshly ground white pepper
For the pasta:
1-ounce FD TARTUFI Fresh Black Truffles
½ pound fresh fettuccine
¼ cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Sea salt
Freshly ground white pepper
Directions
For the white wine sauce:
Put the wine and minced shallot in a small, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce the liquid to about 1 tablespoon, about 3–5 minutes. Stir in the cream and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering until the sauce has reduced by about a third and is slightly thickened but still fluid, about 5–7 minutes.
Keep the sauce warm. When ready to serve, stir in the lemon juice and season to taste with salt and white pepper.
For the pasta:
Shave half of the truffle into the pan of cream sauce, stir gently, cover, and keep warm.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, tender but still slightly chewy, following the suggested cooking time on the package. Remove from the heat and drain.
Return the pasta to the hot pot in which it was cooked. Stir the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce, then add the sauce to the pasta and toss to coat well. Taste and, if necessary, season with salt and white pepper. Transfer to a warm serving platter or individual pasta bowls. Shave the remaining truffle over the pasta. Serve immediately.
