"Elegance at every meal-cooking at home with truffles; ; Truffles have long reigned as the gold standard of edible funghi, the supreme culinary delicacy. Yet increased availability of derivative products-truffle oils, pastes, and flour-which deliver the flavor without the cost, have given this luxurious ingredient a new accessibility and fresh creative possibilities. Written by the worlds largest truffle importer and a veteran chef, this new book explains truffle mystique, history, and varieties, and provides all the information needed to buy and prepare truffles and truffle products. With more than 125 recipes for all occasions, including signature dishes from such star restaurants as Daniel, Babbo, Pichalre, and Emerils, it illustrates how versatile, simple, and affordable cooking with truffles can be. Featuring such comfort food dishes as Penne with Truffle Cheese (the ultimate "mac and cheese"), this lavishly photographed cookbook/guide reveals how one of the worlds culinary luxuries can now grace any table, any time."--Publisher description.
