Burgundy truffles

One pound of fresh Burgundy truffles on my cutting board yesterday afternoon. (Poached in port wine)

Living up to the "Evil" in your tag, Ronnie... Incredible!

Just curious - what does the poaching in port do to the truffle? Does it improve the flavor vs. truffle "au naturel"?

Thanks for posting!

Bridgestone,

Poaching in port wine is the old school method of preserving truffles, and that liquid is fantastic for sauces.

Would it be out of line to ask what the heck a pound of truffles cost?

2 lbs. = $495 = shipping.

OK next question if you don't mind...
Where do you work and are reservartions required?

Evil ronnie...thos truffles look amazing! Where did you order them from? do they supply smaller orders?


thanks for the new background on my computer!

Thanks to this site's wild game page, I've learned that the unit of measure for boneless snapping turtle is 5# buckets. Mmm... bucket of boneless snapping turtle!

I'm sure snapping turtle is delicious, and that these folks traffic in only the finest snapping turtle, I just find the idea of a bucket of meat highly amusing.
