Ingredients for Istrian fu\u017ei with truffle sauce (Serves 4)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • 200 g plain white flour<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 eggs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 80 g hard cheese (e.g., parmesan)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 300 ml pasta cooking water<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 40 g truffle paste (can be black, depending on available truffles)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 garlic clove, minced<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 tablespoon butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • olive oil<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Method<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    1 Make the fu\u017ei dough from flour and eggs, start without oil, you can add it later if the dough is too dry. Knead the dough well until smooth, cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2 After resting, divide the dough into several pieces, roll each piece very thin (preferably with a pasta machine). Then cut into squares, approximately 4\u00d74 cm. Shape each square into a fu\u017e \u2013 fold opposite corners toward the center and press lightly so they stick together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3 In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil and cook the fu\u017ei al dente (about 3\u20134 minutes, when they float). Reserve ~300 ml of the pasta cooking water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4 In a pan, heat olive oil and butter. Add minced garlic and saut\u00e9 over low heat until fragrant (don’t let it burn). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    5 Pour in the reserved pasta water and let it boil. Cook for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Then reduce heat to minimum and add the cooked fu\u017ei. Stir so the pasta is well coated with the sauce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    6 Add parmesan and truffle paste, slowly mix until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tips for Perfect Fu\u017ei with Truffle Sauce<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    \u2022 Make sure the fu\u017ei are rolled really thin \u2013 the thinner they are, the better they absorb the sauce and the truffle aroma comes through.
    \u2022 Save the pasta cooking water \u2013 the starch in it helps thicken the sauce and binds it to the pasta.
    \u2022 Be careful not to expose truffle paste or grated truffles to too high temperatures \u2013 excessive heat destroys part of the aroma.
    \u2022 Use good hard cheese, like parmesan, for the finishing touch \u2013 freshly grated will make a difference.
    \u2022 Serve immediately \u2013 the dish is best while the sauce is creamy and the pasta still holds the warm embrace of truffles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
