Truffle butter is a rich and intensely-flavoured spread made from finely-crumbled truffles churned with butter. The butter used should ideally come from grass-fed cows to ensure a rich flavor.

The creamy truffle butter is delicious when melted over grilled fish, steak or steaks.

It can also be spread over canapés, and is great when stirred into a bowl of linguine, pasta or gnocchi. Truffle butter has a short shelf life and should be consumed quickly or frozen to extend its usability.
