About

This is made with less acid than most vinaigrettes because the truffle flavor is so delicate. If time allows, let it sit for an hour so the flavors meld before serving. You can store this in the refrigerator for a few days with no loss of flavor. Serve it on a salad or on hearty meats like beef or sweetbreads.
