Black truffle pasta sauce

Serves 4

Ingredients

Directions

  • 1 cube clarified butter (melted and the solids removed)
  • 5 shallots, coarsely chopped

Combine the butter and shallots in a large skillet and sauté over high heat until shallots are well browned.

  • 1 black truffle
  • 3 tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 14 oz of chicken broth (canned is ok)

Add truffle, red wine vinegar, half of the chicken broth, put in a blender and whirl until smooth.

  • half cup cream
  • 3 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp. black truffle oil
Pour the mixture back into the skillet and simmer until reduced. Then add the rest of the chicken broth, the cream and simmer until reduced again. Remove from heat and add the balsamic vinegar and truffle oil.
  • Pasta for 4. Use a pasta like rotini (spirals) so that the sauce can stick to it.

Serve over fresh pasta, Buon Appetito!
