Truffles and Pinot and Rabbits, Oh My!

"To me," says Keith Luce, chef/owner of Seattle's renowned Herbfarm restaurant, "the story of Oregon black truffles is that each stage of ripeness has a great quality culinarily in its own right, and only the minority of restaurants who cook with it understand it. When 'underripe' they have a pear/green apple like perfume that lends them to some interesting preparations with raw seafoods or sweet applications.They graduate to a malt/cocoa like stage that is magical in sweet and savory situations then finally to a deep earthy almost loamy stage that lends itself to more traditional uses...."

OREGON TRUFFLES

“Why buy truffles that have traveled thousands of miles and from unknown sources when Oregon truffles are harvested within driving distance of our restaurant. Oregon truffles offer luxury at a reasonable cost so we can all enjoy them without guilt. When they are fresh, and in season, I use them with abandon in dishes like Dungeness crab melt, risotto, mashed potatoes and my personal favorite, scrambled eggs.”

--Vitaly Paley

Deseret News

Miller is using Oregon truffles instead of imported European truffles in his truffle fries and mashed potatoes, but he said it wasn't a cost-cutting move.
