Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz (340g) fresh tagliatelle pasta (Flora Fine Foods)
  • 2 oz (57g) fresh black truffles sliced
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) extra virgin olive oil (Flora Fine Foods)
  • 2 tbsp (30g) unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream
  • 1 tsp (5g) salt
  • 1/2 tsp (2g) black pepper
  • 1/2 cup (120g) freshly shaved Pamigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • Fresh parsley chopped (optional) 

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the tagliatelle pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced truffles and cook for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
  • Add the butter, garlic, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, until the butter is melted and fragrant.
  • Add the white wine to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, until reduced by half.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Add the cooked tagliatelle pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat with the truffle sauce.
  • If the sauce seems too thick, add some reserved pasta water.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley and additional truffle slices if desired.

Notes

Tips:
  • Truffles are available at specialty shops.
  • Don’t overcook the pasta to preserve its texture.
  • Adjust the amount of truffles to your taste.
  • Pair with a glass of Barolo or Barbaresco wine for a complete Piedmontese experience.
