Classic Truffled Pasta

A simple dish such as this is a great way to really enjoy the flavor of the truffles for the first time.

What You Do

Prepare your favorite flat pasta. Immediately upon draining in colander. Shave in some Parmesan cheese and add some truffle oil if you have some. Next, place portion-sized servings of pasta on individual plates, add paper-thin slices of Oregon White Truffles, add butter and toss. Wait 1 to 3 minutes then eat. The heat from the pasta will release the aroma which is picked up by the fats in the butter.

Wine Pairings

Depending on recipe, Pinot noir for medium weight dishes, Chardonnay for lighter dishes, possibly Cabernet Sauvignon blend for heavy meat dishes, although heavy meats can overpower the truffle flavors.
