Summer Truffles..

Fresh Black summer Truffles , perfuming my walk in cooler. I was very excited to play with these puppies. I'll be using them at the restaurant all week ......

Here we have my take on beef wellington. The dish appears far to rich for a summery night , but i promise it wasn't.the puff pastry was rolled out in the pasta machine to minimize lift. it is basted with egg yolk and pimente espellette, served over Lobster Mashed Yukon, Roasted Shallot, and Roasted wild mushrooms (Maitake,French Horn ,Black Trumpet, Chantrelle, Chicken of the woods) a little gingered port reduction and shaved truffle finish the dish. Sarah almost died and went to heaven...

I'm Calling this mac-n-cheese just like MOM never made! fresh lobster meat in the creamiest manchego cheddar cheese sauce a bit of truffle oil topped with a mound of shaved truffles . amazing...
