Truffled Poached Egg’s w/ Arugula

Mushrooms work well, like oyster and chanterelle mushrooms, but truffles work also. Sometimes toasty things, like toast points, toasted baguette slices, crackers, brioche, pair well with the toastiness in the champagne. Use these...

than the Brut Royal, with scents of truffle and butter. Deeply flavored and musky, offering flavors of melted butter, brioche, honey and poached pear. A fat, unctuous Champagne that would work nicely with richly sauced fish...

course is going to be duck. So I need a course of either some sort of vegetable, soup or light fish that works as a bridge and pairs well with the champagne. Here comes the issue though, I’m trying to incorporate chocolate...

Is Salon one of those champagnes that I should try at least once? I’ve heard the magical stories and the multitude of praise heaped on it. I was debating shelling out the $300 to try the '96. It would be close to $200 more...

Call “Teuscher Chocolates” in Manhattan and order a pound of their Champagne Truffles. Yes they cost a bundle but it will be the best investment you’ve ever made, they’re sheer heaven and perfect for the...

The truffles at Teuscher – specifically the champagne truffles - are the best in NYC, and arguably, in the world. They have an outpost in Rockefeller Center. Made in Zurich.

Agree with ThatPat about Teuscher’s (9548 Brighton Way, (310) 276-2776). Their champagne truffles, in particular, are excellent. Other very good local choices for chocolate truffles include Leonidas (201 N. Larchmont Blvd.,...

And I’ll put my vote in for the champagne truffles at Teuscher on Newbury Street. It’s just like going to a shop in Paris: horribly snobby service, outrageous prices, but divine truffles — which are their...

Colette insisted that truffles should be steamed in champagne and eaten in quantity, “like potatoes.” She gives a vivid description of a Paris apartment in winter, windows shut against the cold, fillng with aromatic...

What would everyone drink to pair with Alba white truffle? It is going to be shaved over a cream of mushroom soup, and a plain plate of angel hair. The pairing that i have used before is with champagne and in particular the NV...

And the obvious one: Make an aoili with some fresh garlic, 1 egg yolk, a spash of champagne vinegar, and the truffle oil (well, use mostly olive oil, but accent with the truffle oil). Truffle aoili is DIVINE on french fries,...

Champagne truffles spring to mind. Caviar – have it on your toast, crackers, with or without cheese spread. Make deviled eggs topped with caviar.

On Saturday I am planning to get together with good friends to have a lunch based on white truffles and some excellent wine (a friend is offering up his stock of 1961 Barolo). I am planning to start off with a simple pasta dish...
