Renee is not the only resident in the Hotel Monroe who knows what to do with a bottle of truffle oil!
Consider investing in a small bottle of truffle oil. It’s not cheap but will transform a simple salad or a plain bowl of pasta into something truly elegant. Enjoy this versatile dressing tossed with your favorite green salad, or drizzle lightly over steamed asparagus. I like to mix and store this in a jar with a lid for easy shaking.
You can also use one tablespoon of walnut oil in place of one of the tablespoons truffle oil for a nice variation
INGREDIENTS:
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons truffle oil
1 small clove garlic, peeled and lightly crushed
¼ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
DIRECTIONS:
• Whisk or shake together olive oil, wine, truffle oil, garlic and salt.
• Season to taste.
• Toss immediately with your favorite salad, or refrigerate.
