Alone in the Kitchen with a Truffle

Just like the book, Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant, this is a confession of when I’ve cooked for one and dined alone, with the intent of being selfish.

When a friend returned from down under with a truffle from Manjimup, Western Australia where The Wine&Truffle Co produces French black truffles, I decided that one truffle was only enough for me and I was going to consume all of it.

This is how I made my bowl of comfort, no measurements and probably not authentic (sorry Antonio!).
