Easy Truffle Recipes

One cup of organic brown rice

Your best Parmesan cheese

A little olive oil

Ground pepper

A small onion

Black or white truffle or truffle paste

Soak the rice in water for at least half an hour.

Cut a small onion and place it in a pressure cooker, add the drained rice, two cups of water, salt and cook for twenty minutes from the moment the cooker starts whistling.

Open the cooker and let simmer until the water evaporates. Black truffle needs a little cooking and you can add it while the water evaporates.

Once the water has evaporated and the rice looks nice and creamy, add grated Parmesan cheese, a little olive oil, ground pepper.

White truffle and truffle paste don't require any cooking and you can simply grate it or add it to your rice.

Enjoy this guiltless, delicious dish!


Tagliatelle

You ca add truffle to a basic risotto: the black one can be added when the rice is almost cooked and the white grated raw.


Bresaola

Truffle oil can be used instead of the fresh truffle and the plain olive oil.

Frittata

White truffle will go famously also grated on scrambled and fried eggs.
