  • About

Eggs and truffles love each other dearly, which is why it’s a good idea to leave them together overnight. The porous eggshells will soak up the fragrance like a sponge, allowing the gatherer, if so minded, to sell the truffle yet still enjoy its flavour.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium-sized black truffle (about 50 g – larger is even better)
  • 8 eggs

Method

Brush any soil off the truffle (don’t rinse unless really necessary) and bury it in the eggs overnight in a stoppered jar.

Next day, reserve the truffle and crack the eggs into a bowl. Fork briefly to blend – don’t beat – and season with salt and pepper.

Melt the 50 g butter gently
