Truffle Mayonnaise: Step-by-Step Recipe
1. Prepare homemade truffled olive oil
Start by aromatizing your own olive oil. To do this, we recommend that you use several small jars, at least two, in which you can distribute the 250 milliliters of extra virgin olive oil, so that the truffle is in contact with a greater part of liquid. Grate a truffle and add similar amounts to each of the jars. Once distributed, close the jars or cover them with plastic wrap.
Let stand in the fridge The olive oil with the truffle about 48 hours. After this time, it will have been impregnated with the flavor and aroma of the ‘Tuber melanosporum’.
Remove the truffle shavings of the oil and take advantage of them that same day in recipes such as a risotto, truffled eggs or scrambled eggs with mushrooms. Remember that the truffle is perishable.
2. Make the truffle mayonnaise with that EVOO
And the same thing happens with flavored oil, so Prepare your mayonnaise that same day. To do this, crack the egg and put it in the blender glass. Pour the oil and insert the blender arm all the way. At first, do not lift it until it begins to emulsify – you will notice that it takes body – and then gently move it from top to bottom until you achieve a homogeneous truffled mayonnaise.
3. List! Use it in your most gourmet dishes
Black truffle mayonnaise is ready to serve. how do you see, The secret is to integrate it into olive oil And, in addition, once you have prepared it, you can use those chips for other dishes, while enjoying your truffled mayonnaise in recipes for vegetables, fish or meat. Let’s go with some ideas!
3 plates of mayonnaise with truffle
You can use this mayonnaise with truffle in the dishes in which you usually add the normal sauce, although with certain combinations you can enhance the flavor of truffled mayonnaise to 100%. Let’s go with three suggestions from the house:
Burger with truffle mayonnaise
The combination with these mushrooms is delicious, so you can accompany your beef burger with mushrooms (from mushrooms to boletus) and a touch of this delicate sauce. And since the truffle and the egg get along so well, if you’re a full burger, don’t hesitate to add it.
Straw potatoes with the touch of truffled mayonnaise
They will be a real vice! If straw potatoes are already addictive, these fine canes will fly off the table if they are accompanied by an exotic sauce with so much personality.
Truffled mayonnaise and ham canape
Finally, this montadito will be a success. In fact, in Aragon there is a star tap called “whipped ham” and that mixes mayonnaise, cream cheese and ham shavings. In this case, it will be much easier, and due to the powerful flavor of our mayonnaise with black truffle we will not need any cheese: just spread the bread and put a slice of top quality ham on top. Following in the footsteps of the black truffle, we encourage you to try the Teruel ham, like the one we incorporated in our assortment of Aragon delicacies.
Which oil to choose to combine with truffle?
Very important! For this recipe, Use only a mild oil, otherwise, the EVOO will steal all the prominence from the truffle and, honestly, in addition to being a pity it means wasting a product as delicate (and expensive) as the black truffle. For sauces, we recommend using the Arbequina oil variety, the soft oil par excellence that will allow the black truffle to shine, providing all its strong, earthy and slightly spicy nuances. We encourage you to try the dishes with truffled mayonnaise because we have no doubt that you will repeat!
