Uova al tartufo

Uova al tartufo is a traditional egg-based dish originating from Italy. The dish is usually made with a few simple but prized ingredients such as eggs, butter, white truffles, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, salt, and black pepper. The eggs are taken out of the fridge and left to come to room temperature before they’re seasoned with salt and pepper and cooked in butter in a non-stick pan. Just before the eggs are done, a small knob of butter, grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and grated white truffle are placed on top of the eggs. The dish is served immediately, while still warm. It’s recommended to serve uova al tartufo with toasted bread or a fresh salad on the side, although not much is needed due to the luxurious flavor of white truffles.
