truffle emergency followup

The first truffle went into scrambled eggs. Mmmmm.

The second truffle was given to a mycologist friend who has put it to excellent use. She was commenting on the tremendous size of its spores. I'm not a size queen, I assure you.

The next four truffles were wrapped in a thin slice of fatback and placed in a salt crust then baked at 425F for 25 minutes. Served with a drizzle of walnut oil. Oh my.

The next 10 truffles went into a mushroom and truffle risotto.

I haven't decided what it going to happen to the last 4. I'm not home this weekend so hopefully they're storing fine and will become something wonderful next week. Wayne, [livejournal.com profile] ljtourist, and I enjoyed both dishes along with a simple salad, a nice steak, and a baguette.

Oh, btw, I mis-remembered what they were when I posted. They're Oregon Black, not Oregon White. It was all the rice she delivered it in. (Sadly, the glass jar I transfered it to when I got home broke and I had to toss the rice since it had glass in it. cry.)

Someday, in my perfect world, I will either live close enough to you or have enough money to be able to drop in whenever you're cooking.

*drool*...
