Best Black Truffle Tartufata Recipe: 2-ways...
Black Truffle Tartufata Recipe: This is an ‘assembly’ not really a recipe and also so very, very simple. So I thought I would lump two together for this. Two-in-one as it were. I purchased a little jar of Black Truffle Tartufata, which is a rather delicious pesto with truffle, not basil and pine nuts, etc. It is floral, pungent, exotic, and so on, and quite unctuous so not a lot is needed to create a big impact. So have a look at the 2-way Black Truffle Tartufata Recipe.
#1 Black Truffle Breakfast Bagel
OK, just look at the front one. At the back, we have black truffle Olives and a Gorgonzola ‘w’ Smoked Ham Bagel. They’re not really in this blog. Sort of ‘extras’ in a film.
No need for a recipe as I mentioned before. This is just an assembly. Cut a fresh bagel in half and toast it. Get some of your very best salted butter on that. Spread a thin layer of the Tartufata on next and then add some Jamon or ham on top. EAT!!! That’s it. Off-the-charts superb brekkie bagel that took all of 5 minutes to make. Believe me folks, OFF-THE-CHARTS good!!! MAKE IT!!!
A beautiful little jar of yumminess. You need such a little of this as it really packs a punch. This is going to last ages. I have so many ideas… I bought this in Cold Storage, so you should be able to pick it up pretty much anywhere I would think.
#2 Black Truffle & Bacon Frittata
This was actually the kid’s breakfast this morning. A folded Frittata no less. I have served it with a little BBQ sauce and Japanese Mayo as the kids love that stuff with everything.
Again there is no need for a recipe as it is just too easy. But holy moly this was good. Eggs and Black Truffle are just amazing bedfellows in the food world. Something you simply must try if you have not already. And this recipe is a great starter for 10 on that journey and really is just so easy to do. Tastes incredible and looks awesome when plated.
- Fry off some streaky bacon in a pan. No need for any oil as the fat in the bacon will suffice;
- I crisped it a little and then cut it into bite-sized pieces;
- In a bowl;
- Crack 4 eggs,
- 2Tbsp of Tartufata,
- a good shaving of fresh parmesan,
- a 2″ knob of salted butter; and
- a good sprinkle of sea salt & cracked black pepper,
- Mix all that together and then throw in the pan on top of the cut-up bacon;
- Pop the pan in a preheated oven to 200 degrees and cook until the egg is browning and the cheese has melted;
- Serve it up.
