Comments about Black Truffle Olive Oil - 100ml:
I am testing new recipes to put on the menu, the powerful aroma needs to be adjusted for each food item it is used on. Good product, definately unique.

Comments about Black Truffle Olive Oil - 100ml:
I got this oil mainly to flavor deviled eggs; this is something numerous high-end restaurants here serve as finger food, and I like the deliberately downscale/upscale idea of such a homey item perfumed with truffles. I now realize, though, that the truffled deviled eggs I liked best must have used white truffle oil. This black truffle oil lacks the complexity I admired; it's earthy indeed, but almost too earthy-- and definitely more one-dimensional than white truffle oil. I.e. it's better as one flavoring agent among several than used alone. And definitely take seriously the advice to only use a few drops! All that said, it's useful. It added a lux taste to a pasta with ordinary mushrooms, and was excellent in a different pasta with walnuts and arugula, nicely balancing the greens' bitterness.
Comments about Black Truffle Olive Oil - 100ml:
The excellence of oil and truffles is infused and marketed in a size that treats the one or two person cook/chef without loss of quality. Recommended to several friends who have since ordered.
Comments about Black Truffle Olive Oil - 100ml:
It tastes so buttery with that distinctive truffle flavor. I also like using it on fresh mozzarella and sliced tomatoes salad and on toasted baguettes as well as on meats before and after cooking.

I drizzle a small amount on almost everything after it is cooked. It gives food a wonderful earthy flavor. A little goes a long way.
Comments about Black Truffle Olive Oil - 100ml:
I usually like truffle oil but I found this one too close to garlic in its overall flavors. The positive is that the basic oil itself is good quality and the flavor is very intense indeed, but the negative is that to us it was overpowering (even as a very few drops)rather than delicate or life-enhancing!! Others may perceive it differently

At the great price of [$], I purchased 9 bottles for teachers' gifts. I included the suggested recipes and igourmet's suggested uses. The teachers were elated with this unique yet useful gift. The day after giving the gifts, three teachers told me how they had used the oil in various dishes and how wonderful it was!
