I purchased it while out rambling one day. I like to try different things, Hubby, not so much.<BR/> <BR/>He barely "tolerates" mushrooms, so I will probably try the truffle oil tossed on some halved red potatoes before they are roasted in the oven. That is the one suggestion on the side of this very small bottle. Since it is a fungi, cousin to the mushroom, I just won't tell DH how I prepared the potatoes, until after he's eaten. There are advantages to being the only cook in the family. If I'm careful, he'll never know, until I confess later, and by then it will be too late for him to talk me out of it.<BR/><BR/>I bought a bag of red potatoes on Saturday, so it is a good time to try the oil. I'll let you know how they come out.Glendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11404167118492255622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-21829935006928722812009-01-12T11:51:00.000-05:002009-01-12T11:51:00.000-05:00Hi Deb, OOOH another virtual trip to France, my fa...Hi Deb, OOOH another virtual trip to France, my favorite.I would have had to ship all those soaps and fufu lotions and potions back to the States.It looks to me like you were a smart shopper and got what was just perfection for your home.I love the dishtowel the colors are so beautiful would look great with lemons and oranges and orangina bottles next to it,hehe.

I would guess that it would be fairly long. I've never cooked with truffles, but have had them. A dear French friend made coquilles St Jacques and had them shaved lightly on top. I honestly must confess that I don't know what the fuss is all about. Perhaps you have to have a more developed palette than mine! If you find a recipe and try it, please let me know. I would be curious about your reaction! <BR/>Thankn you for your continued prayers for Page. We are all hopful. You are a wonderful friend, my dear!

I bought a 2 oz. bottle of White Truffle Oil some time ago, but still have not tried it. The fairly small Kitchen Emporium where I purchased it has now moved outside my traveling area. I wonder if it is still any good or would it have gone rancid?<BR/><BR/>I know very little about Quimper ware other than it is very collectible and sought after. Your acquisitions are beautiful, and deserve to be displayed.<BR/> <BR/>Sorry you haven't been feeling your best. Please make sure to let us know how Page makes out Wednesday at the Doctor.
