Black Truffle Sauce Recipes

TRUFFLE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, mix the butter and truffle oil together. Place the butter on plastic wrap, form a log and wrap tightly. Refrigerate until firm. In a saucepan, combine the white wine, shallots and garlic. Season with salt and white pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the cream and cook for 1 minute. Cut the butter into 1-inch pieces. Reduce the heat to medium-low and whisk in the butter, 1 piece at a time. Reduce the heat to low and keep the sauce warm. Garnish with shaved truffles and chives.

BLACK TRUFFLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Wash chopped leek in a bowl of cold water, then lift out and drain (do not pat dry). Steam leek, shallot, and garlic (in any water clinging to leeks) in a 4-quart heavy saucepan, covered, over low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add wine, thyme, and truffles and boil, uncovered, until most of liquid is evaporated, about 12 minutes.
• Add stock and boil until reduced to about 2 cups, about 25 minutes. Stir in cream and simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced to about 2 3/4 cups, about 40 minutes. Pour mixture through a fine sieve into another saucepan, pressing on and discarding solids. Whisk in truffle oil and season with salt and pepper.

TRUFFLE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine heavy cream and truffle oil in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil. Stir in Parmesan cheese, butter, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has a creamy consistency without conglomerates of cheese, about 5 minutes.

CHICKEN WITH BLACK TRUFFLES SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: Clean, peel and dice the black truffles and set aside. In a small nonstick pan, heat the butter until it melts, add the sliced black truffles and braise in the butter for about 10 minutes. Add the brandy and let the alcohol burn off. Mix the Madiera with the cornstarch to thicken, then add to the sauce until fully incorporated. Set aside.
• For the chicken: Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Season the chicken breast generously with the kosher salt on both sides. In a large oven proof sauté pan, heat the butter until melted. Add the seasoned chicken breasts, skin side down, and cook until slightly browned. Place the pan in the preheated oven and cook for an additional 8 minutes, or until the meat is cooked thoroughly; set aside the chicken on a separate plate. Using the same sauté pan, add the chopped shallots and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sliced asparagus and mushrooms and sauté until crisp-tender. Add the heavy cream, season with salt and pepper. To serve: Placed the sautéed vegetables in the middle of the dish, place chicken skin side up on the top vegetables. Pour the sauce around the vegetables and serve. Serves 4
