**Available in the Asian foods section of some supermarkets and at Asian markets.

Steps:

  • Cook pasta until tender but still firm to bite. Drain. Rinse under cold water; drain well. Drizzle with oil; toss. Set aside.
  • Melt 8 tablespoons butter in large pot over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Stir constantly for 3 minutes (do not brown). Gradually whisk in milk. Bring to boil, whisking. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until sauce is thick and smooth, whisking often, about 5 minutes. Add nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Cool 30 minutes, whisking occasionally. Whisk in truffle powder. Add pasta; toss to coat. Divide among eight 1-cup ramekins or custard cups. Do ahead Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in medium skillet over medium heat. Add panko; toss until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer ramekins to rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with panko. Bake until bubbling at edges and golden brown on top, about 15 minutes. (If chilled, bake 15 minutes covered with foil. Uncover, sprinkle with panko, and bake uncovered 15 minutes.)

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will be. This is especially important for the truffles, which should be fresh and aromatic.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and will not hold the sauce well.
  • Use a light hand with the truffle oil. Truffle oil is very flavorful, so a little goes a long way. Too much truffle oil can overpower the other flavors in the dish.
  • Serve the pasta immediately. Pasta with white truffles is best enjoyed fresh out of the kitchen. The truffles will lose their flavor if the pasta is allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Pasta with white truffles is a luxurious and delicious dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of care, you can create a dish that will impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
