How should I use my truffles???!


Question:

How should I use my truffles???

A friend of friend is a truffle hunter and we ended up with 3 wild white truffles... the problem is, I've never cooked with, seen or tasted them. They're supposed to taste like garlic? Anyway, I'm having my parents over for dinner tonight and I'm making stuffed peppers along with a bunch of other things. I thought maybe I could grate them into my pepper stuffing? Does that sound good? Any ideas or advice? Thanks!


Answers:
Mushroom and Wild Truffle Risotto, dude! But they do NOT taste like garlic - they taste like truffles! Yeah!

That sounds really good! HMmmm Truffles

You should use them raw. Shave them on to the stuffed peppers. If you dont have a truffle shaver, use a vegetable peeler.

well, the thing about truffles... to me... they have a delicate smell... garlic? i don't really think so...

but it's something that should be well takin' care of, and cooked in a way to expose it's natural beauty :)

check out these too sites...first read about it and check out these recipes:

http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/find/r...

plus where i used to work at... it world well, just servin' it with other delicate flavors...

like old fashion polenta, with seared scallops and truffle vinaigrette...

simplicity is the key, with something so great...like this recipe:

Slice them very thinly & saute in butter.Add to a sauce or gravy for mashed potatoes or rice.

yeah, i would just shave them on top of your dish. use very sparingly. a little goes a long way.

Grate them over a filet mignon and a pile of (real) mashed potatoes
