I'm going to stay on the topic of truffles today... another great and (relatively) inexpensive way to get truffle flavor is with a truffle oil! I found a good size container at Home Goods of all places for $12 recently! (and no, it was even expired or anything!) You can get the same kind at Amazon (La Tourangelle Infused White Truffle Oil, 2 for $26.15), their price is very good too, it's 23% off the regular price. The oil base is grapeseed oil, which is a very healthy type of oil.
A nice way to use it is to mix up an easy vinaigrette:
1 1/2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon white truffle oil, or to taste
sea salt
fresh ground pepper
Toss it with mesclun greens. Dress up your salad a bit if you feel like it by adding some fresh fig cut into pieces and a little bit of gogonzola dolce!
