TIPS AND TRICKS FOR THE BEST CREAMY TRUFFLE PASTA
1. Choose Quality Truffle Products
- Use high-quality truffle oil, butter, or shavings for the best flavor. A little goes a long way, so don’t overdo it—truffle is all about subtlety.
2. Cook Pasta Al Dente
- Slightly undercook your pasta so it stays firm and doesn’t get mushy when mixed with the sauce.
3. Reserve Pasta Water
- Save some starchy pasta water before draining. It’s the secret to silky, well-coated pasta and helps adjust the sauce consistency.
4. Build Flavor Gradually
- Add truffle oil or shavings at the end of cooking to preserve their aroma and let the flavor shine without overpowering the dish.
5. Use Cream Sparingly
- Don’t drown the dish in cream; let the truffle take center stage. A light, velvety sauce works best.
6. Balance the Seasoning
- Truffle has a bold flavor, so keep the seasoning light. A pinch of salt, fresh pepper, and a sprinkle of Parmesan are all you need.
