- Introduce the black truffle and mushroom sauce to the buttery blend, stirring gently for a minute to harmonise the flavours.
- Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until it reaches the perfect al dente texture, then carefully reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
- Enrich the sauce with 1 or 2 tablespoons of the reserved cooking water, achieving a luxurious creaminess.
- Discard the garlic clove, allowing it's subtle influence to linger.
- Drain the cooked fettuccine, adding it directly to the sauce.

- Remove from heat and drizzle with the fragrant white truffle oil.
-
Plate the fettuccine, arranging it into a nest shape, and delight the senses with every forkful.
Note: If you have fresh truffles, just add a little Parmigiano Reggiano cheese to the base of the dish before adding the pasta. Mix later and let the fresh truffle command the flavour.
