  • 1 lb your favorite pasta
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan
  • 1-2 fresh black truffles grated
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Cook the pasta al dente according to the package instructions. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta water.
  • Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
  • Add about 1/3 cup of the pasta water to the butter. Stir gently over low heat until the mixture becomes slightly emulsified.
  • Add the parmesan and gently stir continuously over low heat until it melts and is smooth.
  • Add half of the grated truffles and another splash of the pasta water. Turn off the heat and let the flavors meld for a minute or so.
  • Drain the pasta well and add it to the skillet. Stir gently to combine and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately topped with the remaining black truffle shavings.
