- 60ml milk

METHOD
- Boil potatoes in salted water until tender and can be cut with a knife. Drain and peel potatoes immediately, return to pan and mash well.
- Return the pan to heat and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon.
- Add some of the cold butter and continue to work with the spoon. If it starts splitting add a few spoons of boiling milk. Keep on stirring and adding more butter until you have reached a smooth shiny potato.
- Stir in truffle and gourmet truffle jus. Check the salt seasoning and adjust if necessary. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and decorate with truffle slices.
Truffle Tip 1
It’s best to crush Truffle with a fork to extract the most flavour. Using the fork breaks open the spores and liberates the notes of their perfume as well as creates different sizes that will excite your tastebuds while eating the dish.
Truffle Tips 2
A little-known fact about the Winter black truffle (Tuber Melanosporum) is that transferring the flavours from the truffle to the requires time and heat.
It’s common in restaurants to see Truffle sliced raw over the top of a dish. This is not the only way to use Winter black Truffle Tuber Melanosporum. The slicing of raw Truffle over a dish is special to only one truffle, the white truffle Tuber Magnatum from Alba.
Our truffles are already cooked and ready to be used anytime anywhere in any dishes.
