TRUFFLE PASTA

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus additional for dusting
3 large whole eggs plus 1 large egg yolk
Kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 ounces Parmesan, finely grated, plus more for garnish
2 ounces black truffle, finely shaved

Steps:

  • For the fresh pasta: Combine the flour, eggs and yolk in a food processor and pulse until a dough comes together. Transfer to a counter dusted lightly with flour and knead gently until the dough comes together and is smooth, about 1 minute. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours.
  • Divide the dough into 4 pieces. With your hands, flatten and shape one piece of dough into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Dust it lightly with flour and pass it through the widest setting on a pasta machine. (If the dough comes out oddly shaped, re-form into a rectangle.) Fold it into thirds, like a letter, and if necessary, flatten it to a 1/2-inch thickness. Pass it through the widest setting again with the seam of the letter perpendicular to the rollers. Repeat this folding and rolling step 10 to 12 times, dusting the dough with flour if it becomes sticky.
  • Without folding the dough, pass it through the next setting on the pasta machine. Continue to pass the dough through the machine, reducing the space between the rollers after each pass and lightly dusting the pasta with flour on both sides each time, until the pasta is about 1/16-inch thick and 3 inches wide.
  • Lay the rolled-out dough on a floured counter. Roll out the remaining dough in the same manner. Cut each piece of dough into 11-inch lengths. Cut the dough into fettuccine by hand, or by passing through the pasta machine on the fettucine setting.
  • For the black truffle sauce: Boil a large pot of salted water. Add the pasta and boil until al dente, about 3 minutes. Strain, reserving 2 cups of pasta water.
  • Add the butter to a large pan over medium heat and let melt. Add half the Parmesan and 1/2 cup pasta water and stir to combine. Add the pasta and toss to coat. Add the remaining Parmesan and stir to combine. If the sauce is too thick, add more pasta water. Divide pasta among 4 bowls. Top with shaved truffle and more Parmesan. Enjoy!

FETTUCCINE, WITH WHITE TRUFFLES



Fettuccine, With White Truffles image

Provided by Moira Hodgson

Categories     pastas, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 quarts water
Half a tablespoon coarse salt
1/3 to three-quarters of a pound fettuccine
2 tablespoons butter
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons freshly ground Parmesan cheese
1 white truffle (about one-third ounce)

Steps:

  • Bring the water and salt to a rolling boil and cook the pasta until al dente (firm and resilient to the bite).
  • Drain the fettuccine and return to the saucepan you have cooked it in with the butter. Add salt and pepper. Turn onto individual heated plates and serve. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Grate the truffles on top.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This is especially important for the truffles, which should be fragrant and flavorful. You can find fresh truffles at specialty food stores or online.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Cook it until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Olive oil is an important part of this dish, so make sure to use a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Don't skimp on the truffles. Truffles are the star of this dish, so don't be afraid to use a generous amount. The more truffles you use, the more flavorful the dish will be.
  • Serve the pasta immediately. This dish is best enjoyed immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to lose its flavor and texture if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Classic pasta with truffles is a luxurious and delicious dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With its rich, earthy flavor and elegant presentation, this dish is sure to impress your guests. If you are looking for a truly special pasta dish, classic pasta with truffles is the perfect choice.
