Lone Linguine With White Truffle Oil Recipes

Steps:

• Add 1 tablespoon of salt to a large pot of water and bring it to a boil.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter and olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and saute for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing often, until the mushrooms are cooked and the liquid has evaporated.
• Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl and rinse out the pan.
• Pour the cream into the saute pan and heat it over medium heat until it simmers. Add the truffle butter, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, lower the heat to very low and swirl the butter until it melts. Keep warm over very low heat.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Drain the pasta in a colander and add it to the truffle cream. Add the chives and mushrooms and toss well with tongs. Stir in the Parmesan. Serve hot in shallow bowls, garnished with extra chives and Parmesan.
• Note: This recipe was doubled for filming.

Steps:

• Put on water in a pot to boil (for the pasta); when it comes to a boil, salt it generously before adding the linguine; cook for 2 minutes less than directed by the instructions on the package.
• In a bowl, whisk the egg with the cream and Parmesan, a few drops of white truffle oil and a good grinding of white pepper.
• When the pasta's had the time you've allocated, check to see if it is al dente; just before draining it, remove 1/2 cup of cooking liquid.
• Return the drained pasta to the cooking pan and , on the stove, but off the heat, add the butter and about 1 tablespoon of the cooking water and stir to mix.
• Stir in the egg mixture and keep stirring so that the pasta becomes smoothly, softly and lightly coated; taste to see if it needs any salt or truffle oil and add as desired.
• Serve in a warm bowl.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water. Drain.
• Meanwhile, in a large saucepan big enough to hold the cooked pasta easily, melt the butter.
• Stir in the cheese and cream. Add the cooked pasta, toss well and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Put into a serving dish and grate the truffle over the pasta or serve the truffle at the table allowing each guest to help himself. Serve additional cheese in a small bowl.
