What’s better than butter, AND better than truffles? (ok…maybe not fresh truffles).
Truffle Butter! Rich, earthy, and smooth, this stuff’s incredible melted into pasta, veggies, risotto…just about anything.
If your mouth is watering (and it should be) we’ve got great news for you: we’re giving one person a whole 8oz tub! Plus that lucky guy or gal gets to enter our Ridiculously Delicious Challenge in January!
Update: Truffle Butter-er Announced!
The random number selected was #89, Katie’s entry. Congratulations Katie!
Katie wrote that her plan for the truffle butter was to serve it with fresh cheese over homemade lemon-pepper fettuccine….which sounds pretty darn good! We can almost taste the luscious earthiness of the black truffles melting into the citrus/spice zing of tender, freshly made pasta. Mmmmm….. Put a little Parmigiano Reggiano on top and we’ll take three helpings.

I would butter a great piece of fish.

I have never tried truffle butter before so I would probably just want my homemade ricotta gemelli tossed in it!
I’d have to fight the urge to use it as a moisturizer, much like I fight the urge to eat delicious smelling lotions. I’d probably end up stirring into some potatoes, though.

Oh heck, I’d butter some good ol’ mashed potatoes with this. I can’t even imagine…
I’d put the butter on a hot baked potato…yum!
I’d probably make some fresh bread just for that. And maybe some mashed potatoes. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Mmmm….truffle butter on popcorn!
a piece of fresh homemade bread! or melt a slab over some fresh pasta… yum 🙂
The first thing I would butter is a spoon…I would want to taste the truffle butter, sans anything, to savor it completely by it’s self….then I would make a roasted portobello mushroom sandwich on crusty bread, slathered with the yummy, black goodness and wash it all down with a crisp white wine. YUM! Yes, my mouth is watering!!
OhMeOhMy…I’d probably give Ina Garten’s Tagliarelle with Truffle Butter a try. Yummmm. Hope I win!
I believe stirring your truffle butter into risotto and then serving with a sliver of fresh truffle on top would be my idea of heaven! I can smell it already – Yum!
i’d let my wife decide……….
I would caramelize onions in it to make a french onion soup.
I would butter a nice thick toasted piece of sourdough bread
black truffle butter on fresh vegetables!
black truffle butter on scrambled eggs with chives!
Some broccoli perhaps, or a grilled chicken breast.
Mashed potatoes, definitely!
The first thing I’d butter would be my right index finger. I trust this butter will be finger-lickin’ good. 🙂
Oooh truffle butter in mashed potatoes would be amazing!
Make some fresh pasta stuffed with mushrooms, and finish them off in a pan with the black butter.
a nice filet mignon would be first on my list!
Well, a dab behind my ears might be interesting but I’m more likely to put it under the skin of a roast chicken or into mashed potatoes.
scones
I absolutely love truffle butter on freshly made pasta that’s had a very slight squeeze of lemon. Simple, clean flavors but ooh so memorable.
My husband and I both like buttered noodles, so noodles would be the first thing I would try it on.
Aside from wanting to just spread it on myself (I’m a sucker for anything truffle…) I would spread some on a slice of really good bread. It would also be delicious melted and put on air popped popcorn!

On my poached eggs on biscuits
I would butter some mashed potatoes, lightly seasoned with fresh herbs. Mmmmmm!!! Or else my homemade bread. Double Mmmmmmm!!!
Truffles sure have everyones attention. Sounds like we should have a party,of course with truffles. Sue
That is a hard choice, but I think I’d have to pick a steak!
Toast.
I would butter a Turkey! Slip the butter under the skin (entire Turkey). Use drippings (skim of fat) with some shallots, wine, flour, extra turkey stock, seasonings, etc…and make a gravy for your truffle buttered mashed fingerling potatoes. There is so much you could use this for!
I Love to be the lucky winner !
I would melt it into hot spaghetti noodles and then top it with some fresh grated Parmesan.
What’s the first thing I’d butter? My tongue, because I’ve never had the joy of tasting truffles.
Oh, I would absolutely use it with fresh pasta and fresh vegetables for a lovely entree.
SEASON A 2 INCH T BONE STEAK WITH OLIVE OIL SALT AND PEPPER REMOVE AT MEDIUM RARE PUT ON BLACK TRUFFLE BUTTER THEN SPRINKLE WITH REAL BLUE CHEESE…LET SIT 5 MINUTES AND MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Baked potato with salmon. I love both with butter and lots of it.
The FIRST thing I’d butter is my tongue! Truffle butter sounds like it would be wickedly decadent. The logical thing to pair this with would be a roasted pork loin, since truffle pigs LOVE truffles! I’d drizzle the compound over the roast.
I’d butter a steak.

SCRAMBLED EGGS
Yummy!!
Truffle butter over hot pasta is all I need!
I’d probably just start eating it with my fingers while laughing in the corner, my precious.
Oh! I am sure I can find may ways to use this butter, but the first qwld be to slap it on a beautiful piece of country bread and devouring it as I am thinking of what to mame next….
what I meant of #54 was ..would be to slap…..
and at end…make next.
i’d like to butter a grilled cheese sandwich and pair it with homemade tomato soup!
I’d definitely make risotto with truffle oil, and stir in some truffle butter at the end with a little Parmesan. Yummmm
Either fingerling potatoes or a baked potato

The first thing I’ll butter is a big juicy steak! Then, I’ll butter the freshly baked soft rolls.
I would relive my childhood and have pastina with butter only this time it would be the truffle butter. Next would be a little on everything I eat and try to make it last longer.

The first thing I’d butter would be popcorn.
Sounds weird, but truffle oil + popcorn is delicious…so truffle BUTTER would be even more so, no?
Hard choice…pasta w/wild mushroom cream sauce would be even more decadent, then popcorn with truffle butter for dessert!
Heh – the first thing I’d do with it is stick my finger in it and taste all of the pure truffley butteryness without interference. Then, I’d probably make a pizza with it slathered all over the crust. 🙂

There are many things I’d end up using it on, but the first thing would most likely be an everything bagel.
Realistically, probably my finger, so I could take a quick taste.
Then, I’d eat it with baguette. Then, I’d eat it with lobster or king crab….or both!
I’d put them in my panko potato pancakes, see them here: http://zestybeandog.wordpress.com/2010/09/14/prosciutto-wrapped-quail-breast-crostini-with-cipollini-collard-greens-and-panko-potato-cakes/

Truffle butter tossed with linguine, tomatoes and basil. Delish.
I have never used truffle butter or truffles before so I think I would pretty much put it on and in everything. I will definitely experiment with sweet and savory dishes.
Fresh homemade pasta!
On top of home made gnocchi.
And I shared this on FB
I would just slather some french bread and go to town!
I would love to use this in my homemade mashed potatoes for Christmas!
I would make the most decadent snack ever-popcorn with black truffle butter and parmesan cheese!
My finger. Then probably some roasted fingerling potatoes.
OMG I can’t decide..either fish, veggies or noodles! Decisions, decisions, decisions 😉
Probably on fresh pasta or melted over a freshly cooked fillet of beef
Just put it on fresh baked, no-knead bread. Some times simple is best.

Hey Guys and Gals,
I’m trying to source some custom badges like the ones shown here
lapel pins to have ironed onto my motorcycle club jacket and it would be nice to get a recommend source for a place to source them from.
