You’ll be transported to Piedmont, Italy, when you try this simple, flavorful pasta dish. Truffles and Parmigiano Reggiano come together in a wonderfully savory, umami combination.
1 (16-ounce) box durum wheat spaghetti or fettucine, preferably whole grain, or 1 (16-ounce) box egg pasta
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or butter, or a mixture of 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter
½ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Sea salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh truffle (or substitute extra virgin olive oil with truffles)
NOTE: An alternative to adding shaved pasta on top is to use truffle-flavored extra virgin olive oil, or a mixture of extra virgin olive oil and butter
