Truffle Pasta No.18 (Tagliolini)

This truffle tagliolini is the sister pasta to the tagliatelle version that was created in 1990 by Chef Beppe, renown restaurateur and founder of Tartuflanghe.  Tagliolini is a more delicate, small round noodle.  Same amazing flavor but with another classic pasta shape meant for truffle enjoyment!

This pasta’s extraordinary texture is due to its bronze extrusion and extremely slow-drying production method.  The flavor of the truffle is enhanced by the large amount of eggs in this artisan tagliolini pasta.

In 2012 Tartuflanghe’s Tartufissima pasta was chosen by Oprah Winfrey and included in “Oprah’s favorite things“.

Cooking Tip: This pasta is delicious served simply using the recipe on the box.  Bring 2 liters of salted water to boil.  Add the pasta and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until “al dente” or still firm. Melt butter (or substitute olive oil) in a separate large skillet. Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet. Toss over medium heat for about one minute. Add grated Parmesan Cheese to taste and serve immediately.  Serves 4.
